Sheet Music: Harvest Time

(0 comments)

Continuing the series of sheet music for some of the songs I've written and performed over the years. All songs here are distributable via the terms of Creative Commons 3.0 Non-Commercial Share-Alike: In short, feel free to perform it, or modify it, or share it but if you're going to make money from it we need to talk.

The tune for this one is taken from the English Folk Song Suite by Ralph Vaughan Williams, which as the name suggests was based on a series of English folk songs. You can hear the basic melody here:

There are two differences between that melody and the melody of the song: (1) The key is shifted down from A to F, to fit better into a vocal range, and (2) the first 8-measure melody is repeated.
