Go directly to a composer :

Lena Andersson/Kerstin Andeby
	Kaprifol This song is actually a "childrensong". "Kaprifol" is a Swedish name of a flower that smells very good.

Anonym / N.N. /Trad.
	Loch Lomond Beautiful Scottish traditional song.
	El Condor Pasa A traditional song made famous by Simon and Garfunkle
	Fly Me To The Moon Before this version I saw mostly very jazzy arrangements. This one is simple and clear.
	Hi Lili Hi Lo This is from the film 'Lili', 1953, with Leslie Caron - so I am told. Thanks.
	??? I am told the title of this on is 'Korobochka' or 'Korobeiniki' ? (some tell me its Katjusha some say defeinitely not) and it is an old Russian folk tune. But it has become a million seller in another context. Listen to it and see if you recognize it ;-)
	Those Were The Days This is what I learned about this piece from Hai: "Those Were the Days" is in fact a Russian folksong, written in about 1800s. Gene Raskin is the guy who "anglisized" it, and 'Mary Hopkins' made it unforgetable for people in English-speaking countries in 1968." Thanks Hai.

Armstrong, Louis
	Wonderful World A World with such wonderful music can´t be that bad.

G. Bassiak / F. Rausser
	La mémoire qui flanche This title was interpreted by Jeanne Moreau in 1963.

Herb Brown & Arthur Freed
	Singing In The Rain Not really a classical style arrangement but fun to play anyway.

Carmichael, Hoagy
	Georgia On My Mind Some beautiful variations on a wonderful song.

Clapton Eric
	Signe Can´t resist putting it here. He´s my favourite guitarist (!) and he plays a descent nylon guitar too. This one is of course from his great unplugged album.

Garland
	In The Mood The Glen Miller Orchestra all in six strings?! Have a try!

Joplin, Scott
	The Entertainer Ragtime piece (here for classical guitar) Made famous by the film The Clou

Kaper, Bronislau
	Hi Lili Hi Lo This is from the film 'Lili', 1953, with Leslie Caron - so I am told. Thanks.

Mancini, Henry
	Lovestory Another well known melodie from the film with the same name.

Lennon_McCartney
	Fool On The Hill I will not have to say anything about Beatles songs I think. This is a nice arrangement.
	Girl Dto. - you all know it.
	If I Fell Because of the high positions not perfect for classical guitars but it sounds very nice.

Meyh-Gruber
	Silent Night Roughly based on the playing of Chet Atkins.

Miller, Glen
	I don´t know wether he actually wrote them but swing with these three he made famous:
	Little Brown Jug Catchy rhythm.
	Moonlight Serenade Mellow and romantic.
	Pennsylvania 6-5000 Listen to that train going!

Popp, André
	Love Is Blue Well know and beautiful melody, probably from some movie too.

Rota, Nino
	Love Theme from 'Romeo and Juliet' This one was asked for and you will see why - a beautiful theme.

Vangelis, Papathanassiou
	La Petite Fille De La Mere Nice romantic transcription of a theme from the Film "L´Apocalypse Des Aanimaux".

Webber, Andrew Lloyd
	I don´t know how to love him An absolutely beautiful love song from the musical Jesus Christ Superstar. I have been searching for an arrangement a long time but never found anything. So I tried myself...
