Product Description

WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD (Louis Armstrong) - 4 GUITARS/LARGE ENSEMBLE
For Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.

Derek Hasted writes "This is a very accessible arrangement of a real classic! It works well as a guitar quartet, and sounds even more impressive played by a larger ensemble.

The key is just a semitone lower than the original Louis Armstrong version, and most of the chords will seem instantly familiar. 

The choice of key means that you might just get an audience singing along - all the sections of the original are here.

Guitar 1 is the tune
Guitar 2 swaps between the string section, the flute and the horns of the original
Guitar 3 is arpeggio based, and the first instance of each shape is fingered.
Guitar 4 is the bass line, and is presented in both treble and bass clefs (play one or the other or both!)

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.
