low My Tears, also known as Lachrimae Pavane, is a beautiful piece composed by John Dowland in 1596. The piece was originally composed as a solo lute piece but eventually words were added to the melody. Nobody knows for sure who wrote the words but many scholars believe the words were written by John Dowland. Full video can be seen at my guitar school found on my website.

Autumn Leaves for Guitar (with Tab)
Autumn Leaves is a popular song composed by Joseph Kosma with words by Jacques Prevert. Later, Johnny Mercer added English words to it. When making this arrangement for guitar, I thought about how a pianist might arrange it, or how a small combo might play it. For example, during one part of the arrangement I include a walking bass.
