As evidenced by this blog, I'm a huge fan of multi-instrumentalist composer, Gustavo Santaolalla. His music is synonymous with the world. He seems to capture at once the sound of Latin America, as well as distant cultures from all continents.

For this interpretation of John Carpenter's Halloween theme -- I wanted to to reimagine it as a "world" sounding piece. Like something that might be played in The Last Of Us. To accomplish this, I looked no further than the unceasing fingerstyle of Gustavo Santaolalla.

The guitar tab for Halloween is beautifully written across 3 pages. I would characterize this song as best for intermediate to advanced guitar players. While the guitar tab is very easy to read -- the relentless fingerstyle technique will take some stamina.

I love playing this, please enjoy! The guitar tab is available below:
