Hava Nagila - Arr. Mike Moss
Here's an arrangement I've made of this celebrated Jewish folk song for Classic style banjo. It is a bit of an unusual arrangement as it integrates as much of the bass line as the banjo's tuning allows for. This makes it a bit of a finger twister but the complete solo effect is also very rewarding.
The illustration for the video is a statuette found in ancient Israel which depicts someone playing what looks like an early gourd banjo-like instrument.
Here is a link to the sheet music for my arrangement: http://www.mediafire.com/view/?4yy0zebaf8zz3yn

That's brilliant, Mike. I like the bass line running through it - sounds great.

Interesting choice Mike and nicely done. One unfortunate side effect is that you have set the wife off now.
Each time I see her she is dancing about singing "Hava nagila, hava nagila
Hava nagila ve-nis'mecha .... Repeat"Our house feels a bit like party night on the kibbutz.
:-)
Why not post the score in the PHOTOS section of the site?
