NUAGES by Django Reinhardt

tablature by Jonathan Byrd

This is a simple chord-melody arrangement of one of Django's Best-known, and most beautiful compositions.

My notation is pretty standard, and shouldn't require much Explanation. Above each tab chart I have listed the chord changes, And the places where the downbeats fall. Two chords have been marked With the note "trem" to indicate that I like to tremolo pick those Chords. Django's tremolo picking was so fast and dynamic that he Could create swelling crescendos much like a horn section. The Picking technique is kind of like shaking out a match. I sometimes Play this song fingerstyle, too. Some of the chords are tough to Flatpick because of muted strings in the middle of fretted strings.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.

A7 trem A7#5 Dm

Bbm6 trem F
