There are also key changes so that each verse seems to move up a gear.It can be played entirely in the first and second position, or more experienced players may want to take the higher notes further up the neck. The tune is indicated by a change of volume, but please feel free to add other volume and/or tone changes to make the performance “yours�.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.

LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE - FLUTE and GUITAR DUETFor Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes This charming piece has become incredibly well-known in the UK as the theme tune to the TV series of the same name - one of the UK’s longest running comedies.The music elegantly captures the calm of country life and the simplicity of times gone by, and makes for a refreshing and accessible concert item whether you know the original music or not.The guitar part is all in first position with just a few straightforward barré chords that are comfortable and easy to reach. The rather scary-looking Gb major chord at the end is enharmonically correct - it’s based on a flattened second to the final key of F. But guitarists will probably prefer to think of it as F# major, which is a familiar chord in guitar repertoire, and there’s no need for a barré for this one either!This music is set in the key of the original TV soundtrack.

Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1277944). LOCAL HERO - WILD THEME - Bb CLARINET and GUITAR DUETSuits Classical, Acoustic or Electric Guitar Derek Hasted writes Rightly described as an astonishingly beautiful piece, this music from the film Local Hero actually features twice on the soundtrack album, in different keys with different solo instruments.My arrangement for Bb clarinet and classical guitar exploits the sustain of the clarinet and the soft tones of nylon strings and works well at a slightly more modest pace compared to the original. I’ve taken the theme from the closing soundtrack version, where the melody is clear and powerful. My arrangement includes one or two little bits of Mark Knopfler’s quasi-improvised variations on the tune. Note that the guitar part is played with a Capo on the first fret so that both players can enjoy an accessible key signature. The guitar part goes up the neck, and the position numbers are relative to the Capo (ie one fret higher than if there was no Capo fitted).There are no dynamics, but the changing texture of the accompaniment creates the illusion of dynamic changes and you are welcome to add phrasing and dynamics to make the performance “yours�.The guitar part is a little challenging at speed but this will suit confident intermediate players.This enjoyable concert item has a wonderfully captivating melody that the audience will be humming all the way home...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.

Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1410591). AFRICA (Toto) - GUITAR QUARTET/large ensembleWritten for classical guitar, also suits acoustic or electric guitarDerek Hasted writes I wanted to make this fantastic piece accessible to as many guitarists as I could. To do that, Iâ??ve moved the key down one tone to make the keys in this piece familiar ones. My arrangement will suit a mixed ability ensemble from early intermediate to intermediate. Guitar 4 has the bottom string tuned down to D, and thereâ??s a bass clef version of the same line to suit a normally tuned bass guitar or upright bass. You can have one or both lines in your performance.Iâ??ve deleted a tiny piece of repetition near the end - the words change in the original but the music doesnâ??t - as an instrumental there was too much of the same phrase! The piece finishes with a final chord instead of a fade to nothing, as it works so much better in concert.The resulting piece still runs for four and a half minutes. Thereâ??s a set of repeat marks so that the music will fit on a normal music stand without page turns.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.

Guitar - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1434489 By Metallica. By James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich. Arranged by Derek Hasted. Pop,Rock. 21 pages. Derek Hasted #1014651. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1434489). NOTHING ELSE MATTERS (Metallica) - 3 GUITARS or LARGE ENSEMBLEFor Classical Guitar primarily - also suits Acoustic Guitar or Electric GuitarDerek Hasted writes This is an astonishing piece - hypnotically repetitive, yet full of contrasts, big builds and a reflecting ending. And well-known to so, so many people.My arrangement for 3 guitars is somewhere between intermediate (for Guitars 1 & 3) and advanced intermediate (Guitar 2), and will also suit a large ensemble.Guitar 1 is the tune, and Guitar 3 provides the countermelodies. Both are 3 pages long, and a bit of sticky tape to the joins will ensure they fit a normal music stand with no page turns.Guitar 2 (the electric guitar part) is 4 pages, but I have placed open strings and then a bar’s rest at the foot of the page to allow plenty of time for page turns. On a classical guitar we can’t bend the top string by a semitone, so my arrangement uses slurs to make a very acceptable alternative (and a couple of bars have yet more alternatives in the score).The full 6 minutes of the original is here, in the same key, using a variety of textures that help to capture the build-up and decay of the original.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.

JOHN DUNBAR'S THEME (Dances With Wolves) - 4 GUITARS/LARGE ENSEMBLEPrimarily for Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes This theme, from the film 'Dances With Wolves' is widely admired as a charming and powerful melody.It will make a wonderful item for a concert.My arrangement is based on track 4 of the official Soundtrack CD. It’s very slow, and lasts just over three and a half minutes - be sure not to rush this lovely piece and its haunting descant in the final Verse.The key is just a semitone lower than the original, and two guitars are tuned to 6=D to give a rich deep bass that maximises the sustain that guitars can achieve.Guitar 1 plays the part of the high descant in the original.Guitar 2 is the tune, and if you have more than 4 players, there is an optional divisi part (Guitar 2a) that helps reinforce the beautiful melody.Guitar 3 is arpeggio based, to help the sustain and to ease the counting of the beats.Guitar 4 has thick chords which should be rolled (but not strummed) to add to the majesty of the music.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.

The guitar part is intermediate, the clarinet part is very slightly easier, and uses the low register to produce a gentle sound.I have included some fingering for the guitar part so that it’s clear which positions are used, and there are skeleton dynamics that reflect the different textures in the accompaniment.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE (The Smiths) - accessible piece for FLUTE and GUITARIntended for classical or acoustic guitar, though sometimes it gets listed erroneously under electric guitar.The guitar part is 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.The flute takes the tune, the guitar (with the bottom string tuned to D) takes the accompaniment.It’s ideal for an inexperienced duo - the tune, believe it or not, only uses 5 different notes!The use of 6=D tuning for the guitar dramatically reduces the number of barré chords and makes the guitar part much easier on the left hand.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.

VIVA LA VIDA - 6 GUITARS or LARGE ENSEMBLEFor Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes This piece is one of my most popular - it presents a massive wall of sound and musical interest for everyone - players and audience alike.In fact I’ve made 2 guitar ensemble arrangements, with exactly the same music - my best seller in 4 parts (or larger ensemble) and this newer arrangement in 6 parts (or a larger group). This 6-part arrangement spreads the music in the lower parts amongst more players, making it ideal for a mixed ability ensemble.To find my other arrangement (all parts are at least intermediate standard) visit my website - link below - and go to the quartets page. Based on a simple repeating chord sequence, this is a powerful piece of music and fits classical guitar so very well. Extending across three and a quarter octaves, there's a big sound, a strong melody, a hypnotic countermelody and a pulsing rhythm. When a version of this arrangement was played by Hampshire Guitar Orchestra it always went down a storm.Ideal for a school concert or for an adult concert's closing item or encore.The parts vary from the easy side of intermediate up to advanced intermediate, and it's perfect for a mixed ability sextet or large ensemble.Guitar 1 has some 8va phrases - these need to be taken right up the neck so they top the wall of sound - the 8va is simply to aid reading.Guitar 6 is supplied in both treble and bass clefs - either or both can be played. Guitar 6 is tuned down to 6=D, but the bass part is in standard tuning.Fingering is left to the players - some might find repeated use of the Left Hand 4 very efficient, some might find it tiring, so please choose what works for you.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.
