15 Jun 13 - 08:52 AM (#3526680) Subject: Tune Req: Memory Waltz From: GUEST,Jeff Jacobs I need help getting the tab for Memory Waltz. I have the sheet music but it's not how it's played at all or most of it. I have it here on youtube if anyone wants to help me out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsEN6ZawgnU newfiejeff@hotmail.com Thanks Jeff |

Would ABC notation of the tune do, as played in the YouTube vid? (I think there is software to produce "tabs" from ABC notation - experts may tell you more.) |

23 Jun 13 - 04:31 AM (#3529281) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Memory Waltz From: Tattie Bogle Lovely tune: odd structure with only 7 bars per phrase rather than 8 you'd get in most tunes, but no objection to that. There's mandolin tab on this site and you may find others by checking Google http://www.traditionalmusic.co.uk/folk-music-mandolin-tab/memory_waltz.htm |

23 Jun 13 - 07:49 AM (#3529332) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Memory Waltz From: GUEST,Grishka Yes, Tattie, an interesting tune. The web sources are a bit vague about provenance and possible copyright. The differences between the sheet and the video are marginal: some note repetitions and slight shifts of rhythm. As for software-generated tabs, they sometimes fall short of the fingering a good player would choose. |

There is parts missing or could be just me not being able to play good...lol. Whatever way anyone would want to tab it for me is fine, I can translate just about anything. I have no issue playing from sheet music. |

Rawlins Cross do a perfectly professional job, and their arrangement is of course their intellectual property. If you want to play the tune, do it your way. "Pretty close": such tiny differences are always left to the performers' taste. Here is an ABC of the beginning as played by RC: X:1 T:Memory Waltz M:3/4 L:1/8 K:G Bc | d4 de|d4 c2| B2 Bc dB| G4 D2 | E4 G2 | c2 cd e2 | A2 B2 c2 | ... |

24 Jun 13 - 10:49 AM (#3529792) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Memory Waltz From: GUEST That is true I understand the repeat, but one part they are up higher on the strings meaning up on the G string and also one part you can see that they are on the bottom strings but up further up the frets. That part is something different all together. Have a look at the youtube video again, I am at work so I am not sure where it is in the video. Thanks again!!! Jeff |

25 Jun 13 - 02:47 PM (#3530289) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Memory Waltz From: GUEST,Grishka Jeff, I noticed a part where the melody is mainly played by the tin whistle, and the mandolinist plays an accompanying voice ("counterpoint"). This is a feature of the particular arrangement, not of the tune itself. |

25 Jun 13 - 09:27 PM (#3530397) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Memory Waltz From: GUEST,Jeff Jacobs Sorry, for the mandolin. The link that is there is not quite the same as rawlins cross plays it. I modify it and i can get it pretty close, but in the video around 1:40 that part I would like to get tabbed |
