PERFECT DAY (Lou Reed) - GUITAR QUARTET/large ensemble
For Classical or Acoustic Guitar
The original is in the guitar-hostile key of 5 and 2 flats, but my arrangement of this classic is in D minor and D major. As well as being built from familiar shapes, it sits well on the guitar neck.
It's a popular wedding piece, and rightly so.
The first verses and chorus feature a low tune, which needs to sing like a cello to cut through the higher notes in the accompaniment. In the repeat, the tune comes up an octave and the accompaniment dips down lower to make a real contrast, and add a real sense of “build” to the piece.
Where they work well, I’ve included the little motifs that feature on the piano and strings in the official audio release.
I’ve not loaded the piece with dynamics - but please be sure to add dynamics that work for you, so you make this “your performance”.
Guitar 4 is tuned to 6=D, and the same part is also supplied in bass clef (without the need to tune down). Either or both parts can be played.
I hope you enjoy playing this piece!"
This is one of a large and growing range of accessible ensembles from experienced arranger Derek Hasted, and is supplied as full score and parts. Derek's website at www.derek-hasted.co.uk/smp lists all his arrangements by title and by "number of instruments", with links to soundclips and sample score.
