Product Description

This solo Classical Guitar arrangement of the traditional English folk song works along two melodic lines, comping for the lead vocal melody in the upper register while maintaining a solid backing bassline at the low end. This tasteful arrangement allows for the overarching melody to shine through and be played with ease of expression, giving it an upbeat and singing quality. It is both fun to play and quick to learn and makes a perfect intermediate sight reading piece, or indeed a beginner level set piece, for music grading. It is an appropriate soundtrack for various media applied to a rural setting, such as country or nature documentaries, and as a reference to folk and country music. The song itself dates back well over two hundred years and, in practice, has been used throughout its history as a marching tune, perhaps most recently by the U.S. Military (who adapted it several times in the 19th century).

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.
