Happy Birthday

This arrangement of “Happy Birthday” for 2, 3 or 4 guitars is presented here with the statement of the tune and three variations. Each variation gets progressively more interesting with the third variation modulating from E to A and the fourth written in a jazz/swing style, returning to the key of E. The style of scoring used in this edition – putting the first and third guitars on the first staff and the second and fourth on the second staff – makes the music extremely versatile as it can be played as a quartet but also works very well as a trio or duo, for more advanced guitarists.
