This arrangement is part of a series I amproducing which will allow gatherings of guitarists of all levels to playtogether. As a guitarist and guitar teacher, I?ve noticed how arrangements willoften be too easy for some and too hard for others leaving many ensembleplayers frustrated or dissatisfied. This is a deficiency I am resolving.

My aim is to create arrangements which arestimulating for all. I have done this by tailoring parts to suit the differenttechnical and musical experience of each level of guitarist. This makes thearrangements particularly suitable for guitar societies, school groups andfestivals. The required levels are approximated below. As an experienced musicianand composer, I have added many points of musical interest such as modulations,chord substitutions and counterpoint. This also gives teachers and leaders tothe chance to teach their groups about these devices in the context of learninga real work. Guitars 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 7 all play the main melody at somepoint (Guitar 6 being for near-beginners).

Technical Requirements­­

· Guitars1 & 2 will suit players of Grade 6 (intermediate/advanced) standard or above. There is somehigh-position work.

· Guitars3 & 4 are suitable for players of about Grade 4 (intermediate) standard.

· Guitar5 is suitable for a player of about Grade 2 (beginner) standard.

· Guitar6 is suitable for near-beginners. It is mainly open strings with some first-positionstopped notes. Although it is a technically-easy part, it is very motivatingfor guitarists in their early stages to play with a large ensemble. This partis optional.

· Guitar7 is suitable for players of about Grade 5 (intermediate) standard. The bass line hasornamentation, a lot of rhythmic interest and at times, the melody.

Teachers and player can also benefit fromthe fact that a recording of the arrangement, with performance notes, is alwaysavailable on-line.

Dan Jones, March 2019

This arrangement of the Tears for Fears classic is ideal for schools and mixed-ability ensembles. It includes a bass guitar part, and an optional Guitar 6, that doubles the bass. The piece can be performed with either part, or both! Bassists are encouraged to try drop-D tuning or 5 string basses for the optional low D.


Guitar 1 is similar to the guitar part on the original Tears for Fears recording, including transcribed solo, and suits more advanced players.
Guitar 2 is the vocal melody
Guitar 3 and 4 are rhythm guitar parts, with Guitar 4 being a simple part suitable for beginners
Guitar 5 adds rhythmic interest and can be treated as optional for smaller ensembles

The arrangement works well with a traditional ensemble of all acoustic guitars, or all electric - or a mix of both!
