By Allan Sherman. By Allan Sherman and Lou Busch. Arranged by Jaymie Maham. 19th Century,20th Century,Classical,Comedy,Film/TV. Individual part. 7 pages. Jaymie Maham #865396. Published by Jaymie Maham (A0.1273252).Arranged for mountain dulcimer in standard DAd (1-5-8) tuning. The 0+ and 1+ frets are required.
One of the best known novelty songs of all time, this plea from a disheartened camper in a letter to parents is still hilariously funny today. Tab leaves plenty of room for additional finger or flatpicking and instructions on how to apply that.
Great performance piece for even non-vocalists as the lyrics can be spoken rather than sung. Suggested for Intermediate players and above.
This packet includes:
~Lead sheet notation
~Tablature
~Complete lyrics
~Accompaniment chords
~Further instruction/suggestions on how to add finger/flat picking.
(The melody is taken from the ballet Dance of the Hours from the opera La Gioconda by Amilcare Ponchielli.)
