Published by Derek Hasted (A0.797716). HEARTBEAT - GUITAR DUETFor Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes Made famous by Buddy Holly (and later, on UK Television, as the theme to the Heartbeat program, a gentle police drama set in the 1950s and starring Nick Berry), this is a simple duet where the two parts swap between tune and accompaniment, adding visual interest for the audience as well as making sure the parts are absolutely equal!The catchy tune, underpinned by a heartbeat-like bass line and the instantly recognisable Buddy Holly guitar part, is easy to play and set in a friendly key. Ideal for school concerts or as an easy item in an an adult concert.I hope you enjoy playing this piece!

TANZ and HUPFAUF - 2 GuitarsFor Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes This edition contains Tanz der Wäsherin and Hupfauf. Both will be familiar to many guitarists as they have featured over the years in a number of Graded Examinations.The countermelody is a new addition, which I originally wrote for flute, so that the piece slotted seamlessly into the background music I played with my flute partner at a friend’s wedding.The Tanz is often mistakenly translated as Dance of the Washerwoman, and it’s also known as Wascha Mesa. The Hupfauf is a companion piece, set in a different rhythm but with ostensibly the same harmonic structure (apart from the Tanz’s Coda which is absent from the Hupfauf).Each dance has two beats in the bar, and the two dances can flow into each other or can be played with a short break. When they run into each other, it makes sense to maintain the two-beat pulse, but if this makes the Hupfauf stressful to play, one can maintain instead the value of the half note (minim), so that the Hupfauf proceeds at a more modest pace.You can play the whole piece (each player plays tune and countermelody in turn), or you can shorten the piece by omitting the sections starting at A and B, which also makes the piece ideal for a mixed ability duo, as one player keeps the tune and one keeps the countermelody.Feel free to add dynamics, a little more articulation and possibly some tone color changes.I hope you enjoy playing this piece!

I'M ALL OUT OF LOVE (Air Supply) - GUITAR DUETFor Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes This piece is in the same key as the original and fits classical or folk guitar beautifully. It's accessible to players with modest experience, and yet even advanced players will find it has much to give.As a bonus, there are two versions of the duet in this one edition! One is Melody + Accompaniment (ideal for a student/teacher duet) and the other gives both players a mix of tune and accompaniment, so it makes a great performance piece. Simply choose the one that you prefer!There is also a separate version for sale for guitar and flute (or oboe or recorder)I’m All Out Of Love was released in 1980.In the United States it reached number 2 in the Hot 100. In the UK, where I’m based, it reached number 11 and was the only Top 40 hit for Air Supply.The piece has recently reappeared in Air Supply’s 2018 Album, and it’s been covered by Johnny Logan, Westlife, John Barrowman, Cliff Richard and many others.At the time it was released, its final note was the longest-held note for a male pop singer, a record beaten not beaten until 1983.I hope you enjoy this piece!

Guitar,Instrumental Duet - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1345389 By The Smiths. By Johnny Marr and Steven Morrissey. Arranged by Derek Hasted. Pop. 14 pages. Derek Hasted #930328. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1345389). PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE (The Smiths) - accessible piece for 2 GUITARSIntended for classical guitar, though sometimes it gets listed erroneously under electric guitar.Both parts are supplied in “Notation only� and “Notation + TAB�Derek Hasted writes This song burst back into my consciousness when it was played as a Viennese Waltz in the BBC TV program “Strictly Come Dancing�.The ponderous, downbeat, original became light, inspiring, uplifting and very beautiful.Here’s the version that was on TV - the same key as the original but slightly shorter.One guitar takes the tune, the other (with the bottom string tuned to D) takes the accompaniment - there is really no seamless way to swap roles partway through, so as well as a concert piece it’s an excellent Student/Teacher duet to teach some rhythms that are unexpected.I hope you enjoy playing this piece!This is one of a large and growing range of accessible ensembles from experienced arranger Derek Hasted, and is supplied as full score and parts. Derek's website at www.derek-hasted.co.uk/smp lists all his arrangements by title and by number of instruments, with links to soundclips and sample score.

IN AN OCTOPUS'S GARDEN - GUITAR DUET (one of two arrangements)For Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes This wonderfully upbeat piece of music makes a great concert piece or encore. It contains all the material from one of the recordings of this piece, including the intro and the instrumental break in the middle of the piece.My arrangement is at the Intermediate level. The accompaniment comprises a ragtime swinging bass which makes the piece motor along. The tune is handed from player to player, switching at each phrase boundary, and appears in three different octaves during the piece, while still remaining on the playable part of the guitar neck.There are no repeats in this piece, and that allows changes to the texture in the successive verses.I’ve performed this piece in concert and it’s always been a great crowd-pleaser.I have also published a version which suits a student/teacher duo or a duo of mixed abilities which is a little easier to play. Find it easily via my website (below) in the duet category.I hope you enjoy playing this piece!

Instrumental Duet Guitar,Instrumental Duet - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.797743 By Adele. By Adele Adkins and Fraser Smith. Arranged by Derek Hasted. Pop. Score and parts. 16 pages. Derek Hasted #4408592. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.797743). SET FIRE TO THE RAIN (Adele) - GUITAR DUETFor Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes This arrangement of Adele’s classic hit has some awkward rhythms in the top part, but you can bend the rhythm slightly against the metronomic bottom part. Much of Adele's improvisation at the end of the track is captured here, unlike some other published editions.Guitar One goes up to top G, but there’s no fingering as you may want to choose when to change position. Guitar Two, by contrast, is more straightforward though the first beat is often written to come early - at the back of the previous bar or measure.Whilst it would have been nice to swap the parts over at the phrase boundaries, the change of pitch and the way the melody overlaps the bar-lines mean that a changeover would spoil the flow and balance.The metronome mark is close to the speed of the original, but the lush tone of the guitar allows you to go a little slower if it makes for a tighter performance.The parts are laid out with extra sample pages at the front so that you can preview some of each part and some of the full score on screen before purchase. I hope you enjoy playing this piece!
