Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to investigate the process of transcribing keyboard music for guitar duet. Throughout history, few of the most important and prolific composers were guitarists or ever wrote for the guitar. This has resulted in the need for guitarists to expand the repertoire by arranging and transcribing music, originally written for other instruments or ensembles, for guitar solo, duet, trio, quartet or even larger groups. Furthermore, it is my hope that this study can serve as a guideline for prospective transcribers.
