CHANSON TRISTE - Bb CLARINET and GUITAR DUET
For Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.

Derek Hasted writes This charming piano piece fits really nicely onto Bb clarinet and guitar making a concert item that is accessible to intermediate players. It’s rather fun too!

The lovely chord sequences and the need for controlled articulation make this a delightful piece for any intermediate duo.

I have added a few dynamics (but feel free to change them if you wish), and some suggested fingerings for the guitar part.

I’ve pitched the music (pardon the pun) in a different key to the original, so that both the clarinet and the guitar part are in a comfortable register where the music can flow more effortlessly, and where the guitar can produce a warm, supportive, sound.

I hope you enjoy this piece!
