Guitar Ensemble Guitar - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1513410 By Coldplay. By Chris Martin, Guy Berryman, Jon Buckland, and Will Champion. Arranged by Derek Hasted. Pop,Rock. Score and Parts. 38 pages. Derek Hasted #1088284. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1513410). 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. 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.

Three selections based on Christ lag in Todesbanden (Christ lay in death's bonds) (from Cantata No.   4, BMV   4) - Johann Sebastian Bach - Brass Quintet (2 Trps, 1 Hrn, 1 Trb, 1 Tuba) - Advanced/Intermediate - Digital Download.Cantata No.   4, BMV   4, Christ lag in Todesbanden (also spelled Todes Banden) (Christ lay in death's bonds) is a cantata for Easter written by Johann Sebastian Bach and is his earliest surviving Church Cantata. It was probably written in 1707 when he was 22 years old. It is a Chorale Cantata, a style in which both the text and music are based on a hymn. In this instance, the source was Martin Luther's hymn of the same name which became a main Easter hymn in German Lutheranism.Regis Bookshar has transcribed and arranged three selections based on this hymn tune, two from Bach's Cantata No.   4, BMV   4, and also his Chorale Prelude, BMV 625. They may be played individually or as a trilogy and each movement is more complex than the previous one. The first selection in this trilogy is the Chorale, Christ lag in Todesbanden, the final chorus from his Cantata No.   4, a straighforward four-part setting of the hymn (Regis has also added a fifth part). This is followed by Bach's Chorale Prelude, BMV 625, a piece from his Orgelbuchlein (Little Organ Book), a collection of 46 Preludes for organ, written almost exclusively during the 1708-1717 period, while Bach was court organist at Weiman. For the final selection, Regis has placed the polyphonic and imitative chorus, Es war ein wunderlicher Krieg, da Tod und Leben rungen (It was a strange battle, that death and life waged), which Bach had placed in the middle of his Cantata No.   4.This arrangement is for a Brass Quintet, consisting of 2 Bb Trumpets, 1 French Horn, 1 Trombone and 1 Tuba.
