Product Description
Bailero is a song from the Auvergne (in France), which
I have arranged for guitar and alto voice/clarinet/flute,
following some of the musical ideas from the famous setting by Canteloube.
I have also translated the original song into an English singing version.
All four versions for:
the original language (Auvergnois)
my English translation
flute and guitar
clarinet and guitar
are available on this site.
The sound sample here is my performance of the English version.
