Product Description

The Folk Uke series offers a musical "construction kit" for traditional folk songs. Each song begins with the vocal part set for medium voice with chords for ukulele. This is followed by a fingerstyle accompaniment and a ukulele solo with introduction and coda. These different parts can be assembled in different ways, for example, very simply, with voice and strummed chords, or more elaborately: intro, verse 1 with chords, verse 2 with fingerstyle accompaniment followed by the solo, verse 3, etc., or as a duet, with uke 1 playing the melody and uke 2 playing chords or fingerstyle accompaniment.

Seventeen Come Sunday has been arranged by Ralph Vaughan Williams and Percy Grainger, among others. The melody is in the Dorian mode on E. It is here arranged for voice and ukulele with re-entrant GCEA tuning. The variation would make an excellent solo between two of the verses. The audio sample is the Intro, Solo, Variation and Coda.
