Guitar - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1298225 Composed by Traditional. Arranged by Danny Crocome. Children,Early Music,Film/TV,Multicultural,Traditional,World. Guitar Tab. 1 pages. Danny Crocome Music #888202. Published by Danny Crocome Music (A0.1298225). This is a simple arrangement of Are You Sleeping (Frére Jacques) aimed at beginner guitarists. The melody is played using only the first 2 strings. Picking and fingering suggestions written in score, with chords and chord diagrams included for teacher accompaniment purposes. The arrangement also requires the student to slide from fret 7 to fret 9 (bars 9 and 11), and to use natural harmonics at the 12th fret to replicate the sound of bells ringing (bars 15 and 16). A good teaching piece for incorporating these expressive techniques into a guitarists repertoire. A gentle and fun way for beginner guitarists to learn how to play this well-known tune.
