Beethoven Moonlight Sonata Tablature in A minor
Posted by Zeno in Guitar Tablature on November 10, 2009
Found this to be one of the best tabs for this piece, and have been working on learning it for a few weeks. Much harder on guitar than piano with some crazy finger work in places, but it sounds awesome for anyone that appreciates classical music at all.
This was transcribed by someone else who’s name I cannot find now from one of the many many tablature sites. If you are the author of this tab, please email me the link to the posted tablature from the posters email address and full credit will gladly be given. The transcriber worked hard on this…
If you have found the Mp3 for this piece that I have played on classical guitar, you will find he is tuned down around 1 step from standard, however for A minor, standard tuning is correct.
The numbers under the bars are the fingers he used (which I mainly followed but changed to my own style in places), it is a great starting guideline however.

Autumn Acres Corn Maze
I have been very busy lately and haven’t gotten around to writing much on the blogs, but did want to at least take the time to p0st my recent experience with a corn maze. Yes, you heard right, for those that do not live in agricultural area’s you may have never heard of one. I personally had never heard of such a thing until my current girlfriend took me to one, but found them to be pretty cool all in all. We took her 4yr old son, which had a blast, although we actually went a few days before Halloween where the pumpkins and hay rides etc, had a bit more relevance than they do in November when the commercialized Christmas season starts to ramp up.
This particular one is called Autumn Acres, who’s website can be viewed here, however apparently these things are more popular than I knew, and there are two offered just within 40 min drive time in my area, one of which is offered by a local community college. I’m posting a picture below of the satellite view of the corn maze, and yes, this is the real maze. Apparently they cut the design/trails using a GPS/CPU controlled harvester/reaper type machine. Until buying this card at the gift shop, I had no idea the trails followed anything but a random pattern! For anyone that lives within the driving distance of middle Tennessee or any corn maze offered in your area, I highly recommend them for all ages for next year, however they stopped activities this year yesterday at this one, and I assume most all end activities this late into November as the corn will be wilting quite badly by now. Yes this blog posting is a bit late, but I wasn’t even aware of these type of things until about two weeks ago…
Expect to spend anywhere from one to four hours in the maze, depending on which you take, how good you are at the “questionnaire” they give you for navigation, if offered, (we didn’t even use ours and took around 2.5 hours), and dress for the weather with easily removable layers as you will be walking quite a while. This particular maze also has activities for children including a barrel ride, hay ride to a pumpkin patch where you get a free pumpkin, a very large jumping thing that is buried in the ground, like the inflatable houses but much larger, petting zoo, several large slides, and another separate area for smaller children play activities. Concessions and a small souvenir store are also offered and Very reasonably priced for this type of venue. Admission was $8 for “Regular” pass which doesn’t include the jumping thing etc, and $11 for VIP pass which includes all activities.
If you ask me, seeing this type of thing kinda debunks the aliens in the crop theories from crop circles…
Yes, this is the real maze from the air! If you look to the lower left, you can see the entrance and exit of three separate mazes. The top one is the shorter “kids” maze (about .7mi), 2nd from the top is the medium length (about 1.8mi), and lowest entrances are for the longest maze (around 3.6mi).
