Ave Maria

I am in the process of tabbing Jake Shimabukuro's version of Ave Maria, which you can hear on his album Gently Weeps, alongside While My Guitar Gently Weeps (hence the album's name). It is a beautiful rendition. The tremolo at the beginning and end would probably be the peak of difficulty in this song, so if you can do that, then you have this song in the bag.

On the flipside, those parts are the easiest to tab. The hardest are the occasional chord strums in the song. They are easy when he plays each note individually after the strum, but sometimes he immediately moves on to a different chord. Sometimes, chords are easy because the notes ring loud and clear, but sometimes, it's easier to hear the sound of the pluck than the notes being plucked.

I am making progress. I imagine it will be completed fairly soon. I am a little over a third finished.

Thanks for reading,
