                         ("Molto Adagio")

i was amazed that there are no tabs for guitar available for this
favorite piece (you know this from "Platoon"), perhabs because its
far away from guitar music;-)ive only arranged the first 19 measures
and didnt treat the four instruments of the quartet equal- so its not
the original (and not perfect)!
ok, i dont know if it is the right music for guitar but-here it is...
