This is a beautiful piece of music that really opens up at about at 0:40 into the actual song. The opening section of Demimonde was difficult to convey on guitar, so I focused on the latter part (that I really wanted to play anyway.)
The end result, is a guitar piece that sounds like a cross between an old Western theme and a Bond theme. While Demimonde is not a total walk in the park, this song is good for beginner guitar players to build skill due to the song’s repetition and short duration.
