Description
SKU: A0.1199445
Composed by Traditional. Arranged by Chris Webster. Folk. Score (Chords/Lyrics). 4 pages. Chris Webster #798513. Published by Chris Webster (A0.1199445).The Folk Uke series offers a musical "construction kit" for traditional folk songs. Each song begins with the vocal part set for medium voice with chords for ukulele. This is followed by a fingerstyle accompaniment and a ukulele solo with introduction and coda. These different parts can be assembled in different ways, for example, very simply, with voice and strummed chords, or more elaborately: intro, verse 1 with chords, verse 2 with fingerstyle accompaniment followed by the solo, verse 3, etc., or as a duet, with uke 1 playing the melody and uke 2 playing chords or fingerstyle accompaniment.
Lady Maisry is Child ballad 65, first published in 1860, but much older. The melody is in the Aeolian mode. The audio sample is the Intro, Solo, Variations and Coda. The first variation, which is contrapuntal in style, is best suited to a solo ukulele performance. The second would make a good solo between verses of the song, though it is more difficult as it uses higher positions. The arrangement is for ukulele with re-entrant GCEA tuning.
