Abstract	:	The following is an exploration of Roland Dyens arrangements of “Nuages,” “Round Midnight,” “Over the Rainbow,” “Take the A Train,” and “A Night in Tunisia.” Chapter one will focus on Dyens’ own life and connection to other styles of music, namely jazz and Brazilian. Chapters two and three will examine each of the arrangements in turn. This analysis will include information on the harmonic and structural aspects of the pieces; historical and biographical details about relevant styles and artists, as well as Dyens’ allusions to them in his arrangements; and discussion of solutions to difficult passages and extended techniques within the arrangements all with an eye towards producing more accurate interpretations of the pieces. Finally, chapter four will put these arrangements into historical context within the larger guitar repertoire and consider the best practices for programming these pieces.
