Easy arrangementsUsually I don't bother much about difficulty level when I write the Folkband arrangements. I write them the way I like them and sometimes they become very easy to play, other times they get really tricky.
But these 3 are special.
Long long ago (easy arrangement)- Composer: anon.
- Nationality: Ireland
- Key: G
- Rhythm: Air

A very simple arrangement. I originally made the solo guitar part as an introduction to two-part playing for my students.

I know Amazing grace (or "New Britain" as the tune was originally called) is from the USA, not Scotland, but it has been so much associated with Scottish bagpipe music recently that I just couldn't resist it ;-) My arrangement is a bit - well - dubious, so it shouldn't be played in public unless either everybody in the audience is well and truly drunk or you're a bunch of really 'dorable kids and the audience consists mainly of parents and old aunties.
The violin parts in the first half can be simplified considerably by redistributing the drone notes and ommitting the grace notes. It's much more fun to play the way I've written it, though.

Annie Laurie (easy arrangement)- Composer: anon.
- Nationality: Scotland
- Key: A
- Rhythm: Air

A very simple arrangement. The lead fiddle has to go up to the 3rd position for a little while, but it still shouldn't be too difficult.
