"Avalanche" is a song by Leonard Cohen. It appears on his third album, Songs of Love and Hate, released in
1971. The lyrics are based on a poem he had previously written.The arranger Walter Abt did not conceptualize the song as a cover version, but in this
version it moves far away from the original by only using melodic fragments of the original. The groove is in a
flamenco tangos pattern. The key changes constantly from A minor to C minor. In addition to a version for solo
guitar, there is another version written in an orchestral style with strings and brass. The sheet music and
tablature are available at: www.shop.abt-music.com
