Composed by Ronald Hazlehurst and Ronnie Hazlehurst. Arranged by Derek Hasted. Contemporary. Score and parts. 6 pages. Derek Hasted #6109033. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.797798).For 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.
I hope you enjoy playing this piece!"
