Arranged by Derek Hasted. Comedy,Film/TV. 8 pages. Derek Hasted #987170. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1403993). The TASKMASTER THEME - 3 GUITARS or LARGE ENSEMBLEFor Classical Guitar primarily - also suits Acoustic Guitar or Electric GuitarDerek Hasted writes Alex Horne and The Horne Section is an ensemble thatâ??s particularly hard to describe - consummate musicians and wicked comedy. So far they havenâ??t quite achieved the fame that their talent, skill and originality deserve.Alex Horne is also known as the creator of â??Taskmasterâ?�, a TV program that laughs at comedians, rather than with them, as they tackle tasks that require lateral thinking and a razor sharp mind.The Taskmaster Theme is tricky only because of its speed. Itâ??s also annoyingly short, but for UK audiences, at least, itâ??s an instant crowd-pleaser. Then again, taken a little more slowly it's accessible to intermediate players and lasts a little longer too! The tone of the guitar is actually, well-suited to a more modest speed.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.

Derek Hasted #5742077. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.797777). BUSY DOING NOTHING - GUITAR TRIO (one of two arrangements)For Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes This is one of two arrangements Iâ??ve made of Busy Doing Nothing during the Coronavirus Lockdown early in 2020.Everyone I speak to seems to find time slipping through their fingers and not much gets done. Everyone is busy doing nothing...The original featured the velvet voice of Bing Crosby, so this is the perfect Croonavirus song!This arrangement gives everyone a chance to play each of the three lines. It suits an early-intermediate to intermediate group, and also works well in a large ensemble.My other arrangement, also for sale here, is for three guitars as well, but is suited to guitarists who have limited playing experience, and stays in first position - find it easily via my website below.I hope you enjoy this snapshot of where the world found itself in the spring of 2020!

Guitar Ensemble Guitar - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1084247 Composed by Turlough O'carolan. Arranged by Derek Hasted. Celtic,Irish. Score and parts. 23 pages. Derek Hasted #688426. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1084247). PLANXTY THREE - 3 Celtic pieces for THREE GUITARS or LARGE ENSEMBLEDerek Hasted writes Turlough Oâ??Carolan, the blind Irish Harpist, wrote some of the most gorgeous Celtic melodies - pieces that still delight today. Here are three contrasting pieces, each beginning with the word â??Planxtyâ?� - the meaning of which is still the subject of some debate, but thereâ??s evidence to suggest that the Publishers added the title when they were unsure of the full name of the person to whom the piece was dedicated. Planxty Irwin is a sedate piece with simple but rich harmonies Planxty George Brabazon is much more stirring - almost march-like in its pace Planxty Sir Festus Burke is a masterpiece of busyness - a real crowd-pleaser Together they make a wonderful suite for a concert, gradually lifting the mood and pace from piece to piece. In each piece, the 3 guitar parts range in complexity from early intermediate to intermediate, so thereâ??s something for everyone. I hope you enjoy these pieces!
