Mock Morris - by Percy Grainger
Hampshire Guitar Orchestra (HAGO) fill their concerts with music of all styles including music not normally heard on Classical Guitar. Four sizes of Guitar, from the tiny alto to the massive contra, give HAGO a range similar to a string orchestra or wind band, and Percy Grainger's Mock Morris, played here live at Bognor Regis, gives HAGO a great workout!
HAGO is always looking for like-minded guitarists to join us - just visit http://www.hago.org.uk/
Our concerts raise thousands of pounds for charity, and we hope you'll come along and support us as a player or as a member of our audience.
Many thanks to Sasha Levtov of West Sussex Guitar Club for this video footage.

You're so right drumbo! This would have made Grainger so happy! Man I wish I lived in England so I could see winsome creativity such as this!

Brilliant.
From all that I've read of him, PG would have loved this.
He wanted his music played in whatever way possible, and rearranged pieces to order.
