Product Description

WATCHING THE WHEAT - GUITAR DUET

For Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.

Derek Hasted writes "This charming Welsh song, Bugeilio'r Gwenith Gwyn, is a three verse song tinged with sadness.

The workload is shared between the two players - the role of tune and accompaniment swap between verses. My arrangement is based on an easier three-player arrangement I made a while ago. Here, the job of playing the third line moves from player to player so that awkward shapes are avoided as much as possible and the workload is shared as effectively as possible. The scores show who has the tune, so simply use those directions to balance the sound up. Feel free to add extra fingering and your own choice of dynamics.

I hope you enjoy playing this piece!

My easy arrangement for 3 guitars or large ensemble is all single melodic lines - find it from my website below"

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.
