Percy The Hard Worker (Extended Arrangement Of Season 5 Theme)

Here is another arrangement I've uploaded to youtube before, but is now here on SC too. It's a symphonic orchestration I have done of Bill & Ben's theme. This theme has always been a personal favourite of mine. Included in this arrangement are a few of its variants, namely the "Triumphant Theme"-- the b-section from "Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining."-- as well as some variations on the Season 6 version of the theme. 
Enjoy friends!

Twin Saddle Tank Suite (Orchestral Arrangement Of Bill & Ben's Theme)

Here's a swing jazz arrangement I have done of Bertie's theme. This was an especially fun one to make. Enjoy friends!

Bertie The Bus (Arranged By Headmaster Hastings)

Here is an orchestrated arrangement I made of that awesome medley of the William Tell Overture, The Runaway Theme and Gordon's Theme heard in the Season 6 ep "Thomas and The Jet Engine."
The outro in the original TTTE version was shortened to match the timing of the episode, but this version has the complete outro from the "William Tell Overture" finale, with the tags and the "stinger" at the end. Enjoy folks!

William Tell Jet Engine (Arranged By Headmaster Hastings)

I always thought the theme from "The Diseasel" would make a pretty lively piano duet. Here is an arrangement I made for two pianos/four hands, and I think it evokes a pretty Vaudeville kind of feeling. haha.
Anyway, hope you enjoy.

BoCo Gets Tricked (Expansion of Season 2 Theme) (Duet For Piano)

I got requested to do a swelling, cinematic arrangement of "Welcome To The Island of Sodor" from the New Series. Enjoy guys!

Welcome To The Island Of Sodor (Arranged For Orchestra)

Here is an arrangement for Toby's theme, with a bit of the "Toby" song as well. For this arrangement I've used the theme from "Oh Doctor Beeching" as a basis. I've even quoted it near the end. haha.
Enjoy!

Toby's Theme (Arranged For Small Ensemble)

To commemorate 1000 subscribers on youtube, I have made this expanded arrangement of "She'll Be Comin' Round The Mountain" as played by Headmaster Hastings in the Season 6 episode "Faulty Whistles."
Enjoy friends!

She'll Be Comin' Round The Mountain (1K YT SUB Milestone)

Here's an oldie but a goldie. It's an updated version of my "Percy" arrangement from about a year ago. I think I'm a much better mixing engineer than when I first made this, so I went back in and spruced it up, and gave it a more realistic "live band" sound. Hope you all enjoy!

Percy's Theme (Trad Jazz Arrangement) (New 2020 Mix)

Another one of my new mixes of an older track. Enjoy!
And don't worry, brand new music will be coming soon. haha. Stay tuned!

Title Theme From TTTE&F (Band Arrangement) (New 2020 Mix)

This'll be the last time I'll tinker with this arrangement. I've made many updates to my orchestral Gordon suite. Including some thicker orchestration, and a proper ending, as I've been thinking  the old version ends a bit too abruptly. haha. Gordon's theme is my favourite piece of music in the show, so I hope the tinkering I've done to my arrangement does better justice to the theme. haha
Just like the older version, this is an orchestral medley of Gordon's different themes throughout the series. Enjoy folks!

Gordon The Big Engine (Expanded Concert Suite) (FINAL REVISION)

Here is an extended concert arrangement of Harold The Helicopter's theme. It's one of the tracks on my new album release. https://headmasterhastings.bandcamp.com/album/north-western-tracks Enjoy!

Suite For Harold The Helicopter (Arranged for Orchestra)

Here is the score I have done for CSC's latest "Off The Mark." 
With excerpts from traditional American music like "Hail To The Chief," "Stars And Stripes Forever," and "Yankee Doodle."
Enjoy friends!

Happy holidays everyone! Here is a belated Christmas present. Thomas The Tank Engine and Friends has its fair share of winter themed music, which I have made into this winter themed medley. Included in this arrangement are the Christmas Branch Line theme, the Season 6 Winter theme, and the Watermill theme. I hope you all enjoy this arrangement and the variations.

Winter On Sodor (Orchestral Medley By Headmaster Hastings)

Here is the score I have made for CSC's "New Face For The Express." Along with the usual motifs from the show, I was given the privilege of working with a Rebecca theme written by AngryBirdFan98. He did a great job on the theme, and you can hear my variations in this score. Enjoy friends!
