Derek Hasted writes " 'Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines' is the theme music to the film of the same name and was composed by Ron Goodwin.
This arrangement stays faithful to much of the original but there are some tiny little changes that make this version fit a guitar ensemble more comfortably...
The key is more guitar-friendly.
You can choose between 3 different 2-bar introductions.
The more complex vocal alliterations in the original are slimmed down to avoid the guitar parts sounding too fussy.
Some of the original features (sliding trombone notes, snare drums and tricky decorations) have been removed or offered as alternative. The full score and parts explain where there are choices that can be made.
This arrangement will suit a large ensemble as well as a quartet, and it's been proven in concert on more than one occasion before it was published.
I hope you enjoy playing it as much as my two ensembles (and their audiences!)"
