SAMAN - accessible, gentle piece for 2 GUITARS
Intended for classical guitar, though sometimes it gets listed erroneously under electric guitar.

Derek Hasted writes "Composed for piano in the key of 3 flats, this gentle piece has a timeless, ethereal sound.

There are a handful of arrangements for solo guitar using a Capo to recreate the original key, but it’s hard to recreate the spacious, effortless sound and pedal sustain of the piano. 

My duet version places the piece in a different key, where the guitar breathes more easily, and the two players create a delightful stereo effect that makes the sound “bigger”. The difficult chords and stretches, the awkward sustains - they’ve all gone, and the result is an accessible duet that will delight audiences with its grace and smoothness.

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.
