• Shedea's Piano Tutoria...
This is piano instrumental version, but I provided the lyrics here:
Are you going to Scarborough Fair:
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.
On the side of a hill in the deep forest green.
Tracing of sparrow on snow-crested brown.
Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain
Sleeps unaware of the clarion call.
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt:
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme;
Without no seams nor needle work,
Then she'll be a true love of mine.
On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves.
Washes the grave with silvery tears.
A soldier cleans and polishes a gun.
Sleeps unaware of the clarion call.
Tell her to find me an acre of land:
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme;
Between the salt water and the sea strand,
Then she'll be a true love of mine.
War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions.
General order their soldiers to kill.
And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten.
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather:
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme;
And gather it all in a bunch of heather,
Then she'll be a true love of mine.
The history of this song is at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarboro... - Hudba
I get so many requests for sheet music for my arrangement of this old folk song. My arrangement is a CCO license (Creative Commons, attribution required). If anyone can work out what I'm doing (video tutorial link above) feel free to create the sheet music for yourself. If you publish please credit my piano arrangement, which must be freely available at no cost to the public. Thank you :)
Can you please go and write it out?
I don't play the piano or any other instrument. Just a huge fan of good music. This is a beautiful piece. I love how you play this. I will listen again and again..
I found this video years ago and glad I could find it again after all these years
at long last, some one playing this song the way it should be played just beautiful, thank you.
I knew the Simon and Garfunkel version. I like this too. I sing it in my head while I hear your piano.
Merci beaucoup, Philippe :)

This is haunting, beautiful. I completely understand the sheet music bit, you incorporate a part of you in the song when you play by ear. Which sometimes doesn't happen when there's a guide in front of you.

THAT WAS AMAZING! YOU HAVE AWESOME TALENT!

@atomax27 Glad you like it :-) If you scroll down a bit, you'll see someone else asked the same question. It's my own 'by ear' version, and is by far my most popular video. I have now decided I'll write out the sheet music. I don't know when I'll be able to find time to do it (might be weeks from now, might be months), but the seed of the idea has been planted :-)
Beautiful ❤️
Thank you! 😊
awesome
@mokhtarr Thank you, I'm very happy you like it :)
Thanks for stopping by to listen, and for your lovely comment.
This is truly wonderful~ I really love this. cx
Aww! Brilliant performance! I am ecstatic! Thank you for these three minutes of pure, sublime sensations! =D
This is Awsome!!!!! I do the 'by ear' thing too. I taught myself, but that's incredible. You are now one of my inspirations. :)
See how great it is :) This is gonna be one of my faves :) Well done :)
@stephenfun149 Thanks so much for your lovely comment! :-)
i love this song :3
Shedea,this a lovely arrangement and performance...excellent...and I so appreciate that you posted the lyrics. You know me... :o)
wonderful arrangement of this beautiful song, thanks for sharing.
Johnny, thank you so much for listening and for your very nice comment :-)
You’re welcome Shedea. I hope you will visit my channel on your spare time and support.🤞
Indeed I will Johnny :-)
@SKIINGisLOVE @SKIINGisLOVE Well thank you, I take it as a compliment, as I play by ear and have been playing this tune for many years, it's my own version which has evolved into what you're hearing, but you never know, maybe one day I might find time to transcribe it to sheet music :-)
I had to play the end of the video to refresh my memory, lol. So glad you liked it! : )
This is a very kind offer Avery. I can write music and was kind of hoping I could find the time to do it myself in two or three months' time. Time is an issue for me right now, but towards end of this year things should settle down a bit and next year I will be able to do these sorts of things, but thank you for your offer, it is very much appreciated :-)
How lovely! I wish you all the best at the performance :-)
Suena hermoso
best of the best like this play 'from france
Merci beaucoup ! Je devais apprendre cette chanson chanson pour le collège et sans l'accompagnement au piano je n'y arrivais pas. Et du coup maintenant j'arrive mieux à chanter :) merci encore ♥
Thank you :)
@Riken46 Thanks for your awesome comment! :-)
Thanks Obie :)
@TucoRamirez2 Thanks so much... and never mind, your narrations are awesome!! :-)
Just learned a beginners' version on the piano and been searching CZcams for other versions. How come only women with almost preternaturally girlish, "pure" voices seem to perform this song? (OK, and S&G.) No oomph to those vocals. This is so much better!
very nice my band at the middle school...RBSMS.. is playing that for our mpa
Yay I'm not the only one who can at it on piano Ty
สุดยอด (Bravo)
(love the intro, btw)
bravo, very impressive.. I used to listen to the band sea level do this tune
Thanks so much for your lovely comment! :-)
@ShedeasVideos ...Speaking of which. It still has all the original parts and is still functioning somehow. I guess they made things better than we do now back then. :)
@Roxann308 Thank YOU Roxanne!! :-)
@muminoi Thanks for liking my video :-) I'm interested in what you said about converting files and will definitely look into this. Have a great weekend ! :-)
@eyork9 Thanks so much, Elijah! :-)
The best I have heard on all of CZcams! Is it possible to find this exact arrangement in sheets, piano of course? Thanks, Rick
Hi Rick, It's been a year, seems I didn't reply, sorry. This is my arrangement, somebody offered to write sheet music for it, I gave permission provided he would attribute my name, and make it free to the public, but I never heard back. It's an old traditional folk song and nobody owns copyright on it, however one could copyright one's own arrangement. I don't have the time, but would want my own arrangement to be freely available. It has a Creative Commons (Attribution required) License, so if anyone out there can write music and figure what I'm doing (link above to my piano tutorial) it's one way you can give something back to the world :)
Thank you Sis, I’m about to retire. I’m sure I will sleep well tonight.
Thanks Andy, hope you have a great week.
Aaaaahhhhhh .... thanks for THAT one !!!!
I need a feature that "auto-favourites" me your videos!
Grand !!! You magnify this canticle !
You deserved this glass of good wine (?) :)
Elisa, thank you so much for your lovely comment!!
Cheers!! :-)
I'm very happy you liked it :)
@apocalypticarocks1 Thank you for your lovely comment :-) however I am unable to help you as I play by ear and do not have the sheet music. I have now added this information to the video because so many people have asked me for the sheet music. Hopefully, eventually one day I may find time to write the piano score.
I love your music! So amazing!
I'm learning piano recently, may I have the sheet music please? Thank you!
Take care Shedea. My wife has been put in home care. Alzimers Demantia.😢
Amazing. I hope you will find the time to write sheet music. I would love to learn to learn to play this like you do
@EdJZ Thank you! But sorry, I'm just improvising here on a song I've known for years. I'm sure you could find the original score somewhere...
Very good, thank you. You can see me, too.
