GUEST,Uncle Jaque Lyr/Chords Req: Green Fields of France (Engli (26) RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Green Fields of France (Engli 31 Oct 07


Thanks much for the advisory!

I'll now feel perfectly legitimate in having a crack at it at the foot of our Veteran's monument on the Morning of the 10th.

I could do it on guitar, but the weather up here in Maine can be wickid unpredictable this time of year, and changing, widely variant conditions of temp and humidity (including pouring rain) can raise hob with the instrument.
I know that from experience, having done a few Easter "Sonrise" services outdoors with the Church we used to attend back in Yarmouth (ME, USA).

Instead I think I'll lead off with the "C" Clarke tin whistle and perhaps do the last chorus / refrain on it to end.

A lot of Eric's stuff seems to be almost made for whistle accompaniment, doesn't it?

The Post Commander suggested a reading of "Flanders Fields" - but come to think of it, "No Man's Land" seems to contain many of the same elements of the poem - right down to the red poppies.

Has anyone written music to "Flanders Fields", that you know of?
