Product Details

Product Description

This capstan shanty has been paired with Tatter Jack Walsh's Jig. 
There are several versions of the lyrics 'floating around' some more raunchy than others.This simple, folksy  arrangement is for mid-range voice, fiddle, whistle, and accordion. It is in 'D' mixolydian.

Capstan shanties were used to coordinate the efforts of seamen during 'heaving' activities. They are named after the capstan on a vessel, a revolving winch with a vertical axis and side spars for pushing. Capstan and 'heaving' songs tended to be used over a longer period of work, because the arduous task of pushing the capstan could often take a whole day and was continuous and intensive.

A Yeller Girl is an old sailors' slang term  referring to any dark skinned woman.
Callao is an old port city (1537 founding date) of mid-coast Peru, close to Lima.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
