Hi there !

I did post many months ago about my intention to release a guitar
songbook of Ultima music.

I took most of the music of the second trilogy and adapted them for
solo guitar / guitar duet or guitar trio. Even if it features a trad.
notation and guitar tablature, these sheets could also be of use to
other instruments. I included them in a richly illustrated book.

I tried to reach the original composers and Denis Loubet about the
illustrations, but that seems hard.

For now most of U6 is done, I still have to work on some themes of
U4 / U5.

The PDF version is available for download on my website www.alcibiade.org
I'll update this file every time I'll release some new content.

I'd appreciate feedback about this if you have any interrest in this.

Have a nice day !

Alcibiade

Beautifully done.

I mean, the music notation is just so much dots and scribbles to me,
but the presentation is very well done.

Nice job.

This is really impressive, and it will be fun to study this in the
coming days and weeks. If I manage to record anything I will perhaps
post it here.

Well, I've got roughly the same talent for music that I do for flying, ie
none at all, but I can at least see something of how complex the music is,
and appreciate all the hard work done on the layout. Very nice indeed, even
if I can't make use of it myself.

I have made two small tracks, none of them are impressive in any way,
they're just chiptunes.
Ultima VI character creation screen music
http://web.comhem.se/~u22237162/files/tobias-ultima_vi_char.mp3
and Audchar Garlg Zenmur
http://web.comhem.se/~u22237162/files/tobias-audchar_gargl_zenmur.mp3

They are mp3 files with the V0 LAME setting, tagged and ready to go.
I'm working on Stones and some other tunes right now, we'll see how they
turn out.

You know, for all the attention often given to Stones, I have to say
that I probably like many of the other tunes from Ultima 6 more. The
character-creation tune from U6 is such a low-key song that it's
terribly easy to overlook, but it is also very pretty. I often find
myself whistling the boot-up tune, and am impressed with the subtle
complexities of the U6 Introduction music.

That's not to say the other Ultima tunes aren't appealing, but it's
usually the ones from Ultima 6 that linger in my mind most.
