September by Earth, Wind & Fire
Added 2022-01-17 17:06:00 +0000 UTCHere we have another great song, this time from the soul and R&B genre. September by Earth, Wind & Fire repeatedly topped the charts worldwide when it came out, and even now it has infinite covers, remixes, and mashups.
For this fingerstyle cover I remained pretty true to the original. You might get the impression that the song is in D major but actually it is in A major scale, the Dmaj which appears as a leading chord is just a lydian mode of it and that's what gives a special color or mood to the song.
We have several standard parts in the arrangement and some of them repeat several times. The parts are marked as verse, chorus, intro, and post-chorus in the pdf. The verse is the only part that repeats with variations - the chorus and post chorus always stay the same - keeping this in mind will make it easier to learn the song.
