Scott Joplin - THE EASY WINNERS - 3 GUITARS/LARGE ENSEMBLE

Scott Joplin - THE EASY WINNERS - 3 GUITARS/LARGE ENSEMBLEFor Classical or Acoustic Guitar - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.Derek Hasted writes "This well-known piece is presented here as a very accessible guitar trio for an early-intermediate group of three guitars, or a large ensemble, making it ideal for a School Concert or as a crowd-pleaser in an adult concert.Guitar 3 has the bottom string tuned down to D, and the parts increase very slightly in complexity between the third part and the tune.The music is free from fingerings so that a more experienced ensemble can play the melody entirely in VII position, whereas a less experienced group might want to stay in lower positions where possible.By the same token, there are no dynamics - but please add as many as you wish, to make the performance “yours”.“The Easy Winners” might not be the first Scott Joplin Rag to reach the tip of your tongue (I’ve also arranged The Entertainer), but many feel it is one of his very finest.I hope you enjoy 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.
