Product Description

ELIZABETHAN SERENADE - 6 Guitars or 5+Bass
For Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.

Derek Hasted writes "Ronald Binge was a fantastic composer, but few people know of his works. He worked as an arranger for Mantovani, and was, they say, responsible for The Mantovani Sound - that cascade of overlapping waterfalls of strings.

His Elizabethan Serenade is nothing less that utterly charming. My arrangement is modelled on the version I wrote for the Hampshire Guitar Orchestra (which played 4 different sizes of guitar). This arrangement is one tone higher, and fits nicely onto 6 classical or acoustic guitars (or a large ensemble). Guitar 6 is in treble and bass clefs, so one can substitute a double bass or electric bass, or thicken up the existing part with a deeper sound.

My arrangement is mixed ability, almost all the music is early intermediate, but the top line is perhaps intermediate.

There are plenty of dynamics which make the music come alive, but there is no fingering - almost all of it can be played in First Position, and a gentle mellow sound will create the most amazing accompaniment which the audience will be convinced has a hidden echo somewhere.

When my guitar orchestra played this in concert, you could hear a pin drop - it is a wonderful piece and deserves to be played far more often.

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.
