Many years ago when I was starting teaching classical guitar I bought a book called “Leichte Folklorestücke für Gitarre” (Edition Ricordi) in a music store in Copenhagen with pieces for my students. Beautiful pieces! Simple and yet so idiomatic for the guitar. My students loved them as well and since then I have always bought/ordered music from this composer.
Her name is Maria Linnemann. http://www.youtube.com/user/MguitarL
Maria is a very special person. She can do so many things I cannot start to mention them here. Languages, drawings, play the piano and guitar very well. And last but not least: compose! I love all her pieces and am happy every time she publishes a new book or piece.
She has been so kind to dedicate many of her pieces to friends and family and I am honoured to be the one she dedicated her “Soledad” to.
In October 2008, while in Miami Beach, I received a mail from her that made me think a lot. I decided to compose a piece for her as a “thank you”.
I know I speak for many when I say “Thank you for all your beautiful music Maria”. We hope you will compose many more in the time coming. With this “Fragments of a Lifetime” I will express my thanks to you. I hope you will like it as much as I Iove your music.
Hugs,
Peo

Scarborough Fair is a traditional English folk song of an unknown author. Simon and Garfunkel have spread in addition the probably best known version. With pleasure the song is also sung in the duet with a women’s voice and a man’s voice. It acts from a young man which was left by his girlfiend. The listener shall help him that she do a whole series of impossible things. For example, she should knitt a pullover without wool and wash it in a dry well. Then he will accept her again as his girlfriend

I know, my version will be the 1.000.001st. But I like it so much that I want to share with you all
I play it for Sarah (sguitar) because she introduced so many kindly guitarists here on youtube to me. Thanks for that!!!

It´s an arrangement by Per-Olov Kindgren. Please buy sheet music on his homepage:
