Cherries from neighbour's orchard!

[Ewe Krumpholz]

Hello everybody,

 

I am new here and I am feeling very well. It's an open door to an other musical world. As a fiddler my repertoire is a bit different from the one of classic banjoists. 

John Kirkpatrick, a famous brittish akkordeon payer, has composed lots of beautiful reels, hornpipes, jigs, ...  And even some new folk tunes can sound a bit like turn-of-the-century banjo music. I think of one of John's jigs (or is it a 6/8 march?), "Frolicking On The Prom".

Sorry, I'm not very good in playing the banjo and making a video. But I once wrote a tab of the tune. It's the plain melody and maybe one could put in a chord here and there. And maybe in  some bars the fingering could be easyer too.

 

It's in G-tuning! Is that allowed?  ;-)

 

I hope you like the cherries from neighbour's orchard and wish you much fun,

Ewe.

 

PS: Hi Sylvia and Rob,

      it's not really german "Salonmusik", isn't it !?

Dear Rob,

you are right, the chord is wong!
I was not careful enough. Thanks a lot.
I am pleased that you like the tune and also feel that it fits the banjo.
Meanwhile I did my homework and also made the whole thing easier.
So here it is, "Frolicking On The Prom" #2:

Sorry, I tried several times to add the picture of the tab, but it does't work. All I get are those hieroglyphs.
I don't think that one can open it. There was no problem the first time.
Maybe there is an other way.

Good night,
Ewe.
