Hey Folks- I'm looking for a few interesting versions of the chords/tune for the air "Maids of the Mountain Shore" (most commonly done with the words to "The Sally Gardens".) Does anyone have some nice arrangements they'd like to share?
Thanks,
Beccy

I cant supply MIDI or any thing clever like that but I do a 'Showoff'
version on tin whistle. If its a 'C' Whistle, I kick off in 'A' then
do the cyclicle bit through six keys and finish in Bflat.Great fun for confusing other musicians at sessions.

Go to JC's ABC Tune Finder

Type in "Sally Gardens" and click "find wide"
You'll get links to 64 versions though some may be duplicates.

You don't need the ABC programme as most can be got as Gifs or Pdf files

Sorry not learnt how to do "blue thingy" yet!
