“The Lucky One”

The printed music for “The Lucky One” is sold as an individual transcription. “The Lucky One” is a beautifully-crafted composition by Australian guitarist and composer Lucas Michailidis. It explores the application to the guitar of a concept Arnold Schoenberg termed klangfarbenmelodie (tone color melody). This transcription was developed from the audio recording Lucas Michailidis/Freshwater Road (Move Records, 2004) with the exception of a few minor revisions which bring it in line with Lucas’ current performance practice.
