                       "Adagio for Strings"
                         ("Molto Adagio")
            by Samuel Barber (from String Quartet Op.11)

       transcribed and arr. for guitar by Torsten Lasse, 2003

i was amazed that there are no tabs for guitar available for this
favourite piece (you know this from "Platoon"), perhaps because
it's far away from guitar music ;-) i've only arranged the first
19 measures and didn't treat the four instruments of the quartet
equally - so it's not the original (and not perfect)!
ok, i don't know if it is the right music for guitar - but here it is...
