Your comment to :-)

[jsguitar]

I love this song and your arrangement is very nice!

[finnbjerke]

Nature is amazing here, unfortunatly the some of the music scene is genereally influenzed a lot by the "Rock and Beer" combination ;-) On a different note, a nice approach to celtic music for guitar is:

1. Find the (celtic) melody in Midi format on the net

2. Import it into tabledit spend some time finding the best tuning (I love open D)

3. Add harmonies basslines in tabledit

4. Find out if its playable.

5. Go to youtube or celtic music forum and hear other peoples versions.

Greetings from Norway, I really like your arrangements and your playing, thanks for posting and for being an inspiration.

[jeanbanwarth]

Very nice. I hope to visit Norway someday...

[jeanbanwarth]

Thank you :-)

[gtrfinger]

I really ought to get to grips with the DADGAD tuning. Excellent. 5******

[dadgadjohn]

Nice arrangement.

I heard this done by Maggie Sansone on the hammered dulcimer, but it sits nicely on the guitar and you played it in my favorite tuning.

[kielbarry]

can you please tab this as well as your blackbird tune?

[jeanbanwarth]

Some of my videos were made to help studying the tabs I wrote for the french revue "Trad Magazine", so it's difficult to put them on the web... But I think it's very easy to find the tab from the video. Good work ;-)

[gskarogiannis]

Superb!

[jeanbanwarth]

Thank you :-)

[passionpicking]

[jeanbanwarth]

Very nice, thank you :-)

[pvail06]

This is a really good arrangement. Do you know where i can get tab for this as i would love to do an arrangement of it.

Peter. 5*****

[jeanbanwarth]

If you want only the melody to write you own arrangement, you can easely find it in a site named "The session" (youtube don't allow to post a link in a comment but google is your friend...)

Ciao Jean,

it's a great pleasure to listen and watch your great arrangements...ciao dall'Italia

[jeanbanwarth]

Thank you :-)

From where are you in Italia ? I have good friends in Bologna and Valle d'Aosta.

[clumsystrummer]

Hi Jean,

Greetings from across the pond. Wow!, outstanding arrangement and playing on this standard.

[jeanbanwarth]

Very nice, thank you :-)

[glaoud]

Ben heureusement qu'il est cool le tempo !

Because çà parait difficile de faire sonner

chaque note .On voit bien le travail des deux mains ,çà aide . Chapeau l'artiste ! *****

A +. J.C.

[jeanbanwarth]

Merci. Avant d'enregistrer, j'ai essayé de trouver un tempo qui convienne et j'en suis resté à 186 environ. Le tempo d'un reel oscille entre 188 et 240. Il arrive qu'on tourne à 250 mais à cette vitesse en fingerpicking, on risque l'éjection centrifuge de quelques doigts. Beaucoup trop rapide pour moi en tous cas :-(

[glaoud]

Pour ces musiques ,je ne fait pas une fixation sur les tempos, (même si ce reel est joué plus rapidement au violon ou à la flute ). Il y a de beaux reels "lents" genre : "The maids of Micheltown" par le "Bothy Band" ( que Tony Mac manus à fait aussi sur Youtube )L'as tu vu ?

[jeanbanwarth]

Tu as raison, pas de fixation à faire mais une attention à accorder tout de même.

Malheureusement, je ne trouve pas la version de McManus dont tu parles sur Youtube...
