I just finished my first transcription of a Classical piece to guitar!

I picked John Cage's 4'33''.  I think the second movement was the toughest.  Here it is!

It's not about notes or cords or space or nothingness, it about how I feel.
 
Why can't I get it right?

I would expect someone from the Portland Metro Area to perform it in 4:20.

Still not as intelligent as the scores for P D Q Bach! I prefer the railroad one, or the explosion one a lot better than these. AND, the silences in P D Q's work are way more pregnant than those you showed!
 
It's the truth! See if for yourself in the Biography for P D Q Bach ... I have it autographed, btw!

Hi,
 
PDQ Bach's scores from the biography.
 
This is Strummy's version! 

 
This is the unknown CH composer:

 
This is Bapu's, the truest bass there is:

 
This is at this moment unknown composer, who got too drunk, and was unable to finish his work!

 
let's see ... we won't name this guy, but he slipped his lid!

 
And this one is ... well ... the musician is taking a break ... he's tired right now!
