Hampshire Guitar Orchestra (hago) 10th birthday promo

The Hampshire Guitar Orchestra is 10 years old. This "short" gives you a taster of some of the 20-25 pieces that HAGO plays in concert. Visit our Channel here for full-length live videos of some of our programme...

The audio is live in concert except for the "we used to sound like this" clip (recorded in rehearsal in 1999 - the year we began.)

Our concerts are in aid of charity - by February 2009 we'd raised £42,000.

HAGO always welcomes for good players who want to be involved in an ensemble that is *really* special.
Interested? Visit http://www.hago.org.uk/join
Don't dither - get in touch!!!


HAGO is directed by Derek Hasted - visit http://www.hago.org.uk to find out more about our guitars and download free music, hints & tips and more.....


This video features concerts at Wickham, Portsea, Alton and the BIrdman of Bognor and includes just some of the pieces we play in concert.
You've heard short extracts from
Plink Plank Plunk
Bransle de la Torche
Can You Feel The Love Tonight
Paysage Iberique
Dvorak Op 44
Allegro from Palladio
Darktown Strutters Ball
Rockin' All Over The World
To hear the whole pieces you need to come to a HAGO concert - we'll see you there!

You'll hear not only the classical guitar, but its smaller brother, the alto classical guitar, plus the larger relatives of the guitar family - the classical bass guitar and the contra (or sometimes contrabass) guitar.
HAGO - Have A Good One - that's us!

HAGO is 10 years old on 25th February 2009, and this little video is our way to entice you along to one of our future concerts - nearly always raising money for local charities.

Excellent music and enjoyable video of familiar places. Enjoyed your concert on 28th Feb.2009at Hythe United Reformed Church Hall/Cornerstone. Your music and commentary appeals to a wide age range - my son aged 19 and me (nearer 50 than 40!) had a great evening. Well done. We're looking forward to coming to concerts again.

Happy 10th Birthday HAGO! Congratulations on all you have achieved so far. What a brilliant video tribute to such a dedicated group of guitarists. I must add that one character featured in some of the photos is an impostor but feels very privileged to be included!
