By Traditional. By Anonymous. Arranged by Derek Hasted. Christmas,Comedy,Traditional. 17 pages. Derek Hasted #899328. Published by Derek Hasted (A0.1310190).Variations on GOD REST YE MERRY, GENTLEMEN - 3+ Guitars
For 3 or more Classical or Acoustic Guitars - sometimes it's erroneously listed here as Electric Guitar.
Derek Hasted writes "Running for almost four minutes, these four variations on “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen” present this well-known Christmas carol in 4 styles, with nods to well-known composers and themes, mixing hints of Bach (amongst others) with Tango and Pop, all underpinning the familiar Carol.
The variations can be played singly, but as presented they run seamlessly from one to another to make a continuous performance piece ideal for school and adult Christmas concerts.
I hope you enjoy playing this quirky Christmas arrangement!
For another quirky Christmas piece, look out for my “Pachelbel’s Carol” - find it using the link below."
