Crickets are singing in the green-bed. Fuzzy stony houses are hiding in the woods. Blurring flowers across the window are climbing up. The vague life is like wondering in the fog. Crazy morning and lucky eve had been pre-set. Chance favors to those who can catch her. When the haze was over, the sun looks shiner by clouds.The current song sheets were revised on June 23, 2023.

Arranged for Solo Mandolin. Composed by John Goodin. Solos and Duets. Style. E-book. Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music #30743EB. Published by Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music
ISBN 9781619118416.<br> <br> Between 1755 and 1761 James Oswald composed and published two sets of 48 Airs for the Seasons, 96 pieces in all. Each air included from two to four separate movements in different time signatures and tempos, almost always in the same key. Each was printed on a single page with the melody on one staff and a bass line (with figures) on a second staff. Additionally, each piece was named after a plant and organized into groups of twelve for each season. This book contains a selection of 24 Oswald airs, 6 for each season, in standard notation and arranged for solo mandolin. Originally intended for the flute or violin, in most cases the original key has been changed to better accommodate the modern mandolin. Oswaldas Scottish heritage is evident in the number of movements that are actually slow airs, jigs, reels or menuets. Altogether, this is a delightful collection of 18th century melodies suitable for solo performance, teaching or private enjoyment.

The title is used in at least 32 films.The song was arranged for the Mandolin and notated in classical musical notation and tablature.The sound of a Vibraphone was used in the setting, so the sound does not mix with the sound of your own instrument. The melody is backed by a metronome and quietly by an organ. We hope you enjoy making music...!La vie en rose (französisch für „Das Leben in Rosa“, in freier Übersetzung „Leben durch die rosarote Brille“) ist ein 1945 geschriebenes Chanson der französischen Sängerin Édith Piaf (1915-1963), Melodie: Louis Guglielmi (1916–1991).Das Chanson wurde in mindestens zwölf Sprachen übersetzt, davon mindestens 28 Versionen auf Deutsch. Der Titel wird in mindestens 32 Kinofilmen verwendet.Das Lied wurde für die Mandoline arrangiert und in klassischer Notenschrift und Tabulatur notiert.In der Vertonung wurde der Sound eines Vibraphones verwendet, so vermischt sich der Klang nicht mit dem Klang des eigenen Instrumentes. Hinterlegt ist die Melodie mit einem Metronom sowie leise mit einer Orgel. Wir wünschen viel Spaß beim Musizieren...!

By John Holenko. For Mandolin. Early Music/Renaissance. 64 pages. Published by Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music
ISBN 9781609742959. Most of the music in this book comes from editions or manuscripts from England in the late 1500ICOs. There are also a few French pieces. The cittern was popular in Italy, England and France. Aside from various tunings, there were two main kinds of instruments being played during the 16th and 17th centuries: the 4 course (four sets of doubled strings), and the 6 course cittern with several editions of music to go along with both. The pieces I have chosen for this book were all written for the 4 course instrument and fall into three main categories: dance music, song arrangements and free pieces. The free pieces are basically preludes that explore the melodic range of the instrument. As the title suggests these pieces can be played very freely and need not have a very strict tempo. The dance pieces are not really meant to be danced to, but rather take their form and rhythm from the popular court dances of the time. These can be played with a wide range of overall tempo, but once a tempo is chosen, should be strictly adhered to. The song arrangements are settings of popular songs of the time as well as more formal vocal settings. Care should be taken in making the melody clear and singing. Since the range of the cittern and mandolin are the same, John Holenko has kept the melodies intact. Because of the difference in tuning however, the voicing of the harmonies have been changed so as to fit on the mandolin.
