By Various. By John Bratton. Arranged by Derek Hasted. 20th Century,Standards. Score and parts. 14 pages. Derek Hasted #719969. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1118447).For Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.
Derek Hasted writes "This is a fantastic concert encore or a piece to close the first half of a concert...
My advanced-intermediate arrangement is based on a piano score which was published in 1907 and is faithful both to the key of the original and to the harmony and stylistic patterns that make the piece so distinctive and fun.
The workload is shared equally, and the piece is surprisingly “under the fingers” - it is the speed as much as the notes that mean that it best suits a confident and experienced duo. (I also have a quartet version on sale here which shares out the workload, making a piece that suits a less-experienced team - find it by visiting my website below).
The music comprises the opening Theme (which you can hear on the soundclip) and the Trio. Although the original music is not marked with a DC, such a repeat would make for an even more substantial concert item.
The dynamics broadly match those in the piano original, but any energetic alternative will work!
There is just a little fingering here and there - much of the rest will be self-evident.
I hope you enjoy playing this piece!"
