Ashokan Farewell Acoustic Fingerstyle Guitar

[Celticarchie1]

That sounds so Scottish. It's no surprise as Jay Ungar said he wrote it in the style of a Scottish lament.

[fngrpkn06]

Great rendition!

[streak1202]

this is a great piece and well played. thanks

[YorkGod]

I want to do that problem is i'd probs cry while playing lol

[JMFingerstyle]

Beautiful arrangement, very nicely done. I enjoyed that a lot.

[MegaBlackPrince]

Great job! I'd love to have the tabs or music to that arrangment. How can I get them?

[FrankKane51]

Super! I don't know whether to throw the guitar in the corner or try to emulate this! I'll probably just try my best!

[dieseldawg2]

beautiful sir

[KC5E]

That is great. I also love that old J-45 Gibson (at least I think it is but can't really see the headstock well enough to be sure). Whatever it is, you and it do well.

[TTexas2]

★★★★★ well done but too short

[Bookmovielover]

this is one of my favorite songs to play on the violin. it's so beautiful. great job!

[TheGrasspond]

Very nice version. Are you playing this in an alternate tuning?



[southerncowgirlinHim]

Oh, this is beautiful! Very nice picking:)

[juggler1]

Beautiful! Thank you.

[ncoraor]

I tabbed this off the video, and the guitarist was kind enough to check my work. So thanks to him for that, and arranging and performing it so well. The tab's available in my profile link.

[ronaoj]

@ncoraor

thanks for the tabs

[patsmithj]

@ncoraor can you send me them?

[ncoraor]

@patsmithj YouTube won't let me post the URL in a comment. Just click my name and then click the link to my "Website" on the left side under my Profile.

By God, I have a white tuner J45 just like that one! A 1962. My first steel string guitar!

Very nicely done. Very nice indeed!

[leeking007]

I have just heard of this song and I can't stop hearing you play it ! It was on a civil war cd i got with fiddle and guitar, bt u you are superb.Thanks for this.

[raymondville]

Bravo ! Well done my friend

[EmberHeart17]

Can I have the chords for this?

[roadwary56]

beautiful,wished yould give a lesson on that

[cobr3n]

Dude, awesome job!!

Do you have the tabs for this version?

And 5 star rating for you. :)

[dwills1000]

Sorry, there are no tabs.

[dwills1000]

No, I'm in standard tuning with the low E string tuned to D.

[koc1a0pipes]

are you in DADGAD?

[obliviousdreamer]

Beautiful version of Ashokan Farewell. This made my day.

[musiclovr113]

that was beutiful! wow you did such a good job. i prefer this version to most of the fiddle versions. A++++++++

[davnkatz]

Thought of as a fiddle tune, you have created the same sense of Civil War tragedy with your guitar styling.

Good performance!

[pcool3066]

Beautiful, you really did an excellent job on one of my favorite songs. Your pristine picking really brought the song to life. Thanks for all your hard work to make this possible.

[arjuntheonly]

how do u play it in the broken chords form like how u do?? it sounds really good. i can play in this in the normal sigle sting form, could'n figure out for this one. where can i find the tabs for this exact one??

[creedyguldunjka]

Finally responding to everyone. (A friend posted this for me, so the names don't match) Thanks for all the nice comments. I figured this out on my own, simple drop D tuning. There are no tabs for it, sorry.

[ronmaret]

I have to learn this song. I listen to it over and over again. Where can I find a tab for it. Can it be purchased?

[fouramhq]

Beautiful. Was just talking to my brother about working up this acoustic piece. You gave me a roadmap. Thanks.

[goldhat3]

Very nicely done.

[stevethehawk]

Very, very nice. I've been working on this tune for a little while and am not even close to your rendition. Fine work. If you happen to know if tab is available for your version of it, please do share it with us.

[keebearfull]

wow. smooth! I think I like it better than the Jay Unger version in a higher key currently posted. Good work.

[0ldfinger]

Beautiful version, thanks for posting this. I had a version in a major but the fingering was a wee bit awkward and I could never make it sound unforced; your version is perfect for the tune, well done ! :)

[EPINNR]

Song I could listen to over and over.

Thanks for putting it on.

[EPINNR]

Absolutely beautiful rendition. A real 5 star.

[jyflsol]

Awesome!!!
