Moonlight Sonata by Ludwig van Beethoven
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tabulated from the (much easier to play) piano score by David Atkinson
in October 1994.
V2.0 (11/94)

I have inlcuded left hand fingering underneath the tab. I think the
system I used is self-explanitary. The numbers 1 to 4 indicate the
fingers (1index,2middle,3ring,4little(pinkie)). I have left out
fingering where a section is repeated or on parts where fingering is
blatantly obvious. If anyone needs an explanation, feel free to email
me.

I transposed this to the key of A minor which seemed logical to me at the
time but I have recently been informed that Tarrega used D minor.
Tough! I experimented with the B string tuned to Bb but, although some
parts were easier, most was better with normal tuning. Anyone have any
other suggestions?

I might just try a D minor version if I find the time and motivation.
Watch this space!

Please email comments, corrections, suggestions and the rest to David
(kaum0@central.sussex.ac.uk).

p pull-off, h hammer-on, s slide

sustain. However, to save me hassle, sustain all the bass notes
for a whole bar where possible.

The roman numerals above the tab indicate either full barres or half
barres. The ...s indicate how long the barre lasts.

Adagio Sostenuto.
