"Bensusan" by Michael Hedges.
Windham Hill recording- Aerial Boundaries
Transcribed by Michael Gunter.
Most of the credit for this transcription should go to David Morse
, whose transcription set me on the right track.
I saw a bunch of little problems so I decided to redo it a bit. I know
it's not yet perfect, but hey -- Michael Hedges is too much a god for
us mortals to ever aspire to copy.
One thing I'd really like to know if someone out there does: How does he
get such explosive harmonics (measures 4, 12, 16, etc...)?
Any glaring problems? I'm at .
P.S. I've seen Jeff Lo's partial transcription of "Ragamuffin". I've tried
to finish it, but I can't. Help!!
Tuning: CGDGAC, capo III
4/4 time, except in measures 18 and 21 (3/4).
| = The quarter note beats.
. = Eighths between beats.
Let notes ring throughout, especially where indicated by ====.
