Carol Of The Bells (Electric)

Description

This arrangement of "Carol Of The Bells" is for two harmony electric guitar parts. There is also a clean tone rhythm guitar part strumming chords that can be played by acoustic or electric guitar.

The arrangement focuses on building dynamics. Building from quiet, gradually to loud, then back down again. The melody is in a minor key making for a very serious, dramatic sound. The highly recognizable main motif is a group of four notes that repeats over and again, gradually building in volume, building up a lot of forward momentum until it reaches a loud crescendo in ascending then descending scale lines.

Finally, there's a single guitar arrangement that is a combination of guitar 1 and guitar 2!

This piece is in A minor, played in 3/4 time at a brisk 180 BPM!
