Publisher Desc.  The chaconne form, very popular during the Baroque era, consists of a repeating harmonic pattern which is variously embellished and or- namented as the piece proceeds. Each repetition of the pattern has its own organic life and there is an underlying flow to how the piece de- velops within this framework. My chaconne is loosely based on one in F major for the lute composed by Bohemian lutenist and guitarist, Jan Antonin Losy Graf von Losinthal (Johann Losy) (1651-1721). This CHACONNE for guitar quartet was completed on October 9, 2010, which would have been John Lennons 70th birthday. It is ded- icated to him and his philosophy of peace. The melody of the song Give Peace a Chance is first quoted at measure 128 in guitars 3 & 4 and from there appears at various points.
