About the piece
Written by Paul McCartney and released on the Beatles' 1968 double album, "Blackbird" was built around a fingerpicked guitar part loosely inspired by Bach's Bourrée in E minor. This solo guitar arrangement by Luis Leite carries both the melody and the interwoven bass line that give the song its intimate, contrapuntal character.
