Instrumental arrangement of my "classical-folk crossover" setting of Prévert's poem "Pour faire le portrait d'un oiseau" (To paint the portrait of a bird).
Prévert indicates that you can never capture the real essence of a bird. You can paint a cage, a tree branch for it to sing on, but you have to wait for the actual bird itself to enter your painting
- only then can you sign your painting, using a feather from that bird.
The music has a Dorian feel - ie with a minor third and seventh but often with a raised sixth - (in this case F#s in an otherwise A minor context).
I have provided full score and separate parts and also the melody instrument part with chord names, to enable the guitarist to read along with the melody instrument player and opt for interpretations
other than the notated version (eg strumming, rasgueado etc).
The sound sample is an electronic preview.
My live performance of the original song can be heard on youtube at:
