My Piano Arrangement of the Blackmore&Night version of Greensleeves. Greensleeves is an English folk song, one that I&pretty attached to because it was my old Piano instructor&favorite song. As such, I&pretty heavy handed in my criticism of renditions of this song. Blackmore&Night&version is my personal favorite for a variety of reasons: the transformations made to the tune are striking but fit quite well, the folk-rock esque feeling along with the 4/4 time signature instead of the traditional 3/4 do not detract from the song in any way and in fact add some interesting variation in rhythm during the vocals, Blackmore&guitar work is impeccable as always, and finally the transposition from A-minor to C-minor in the middle helps give a new dimension to the vocals since the lyrics are repeated for that section. Here&a link to the original, highly recommend giving it a listen. Shadow of the Moon, the album this is taken from, is one of my favorite albums, and this song fits in perfectly. Sheet music and video created with musescore because concert creator shut down :( Arrangement was heavily inspired by another work. A lot of the guitar sections did not make it into the arrangement because at the end of the day this should be possible to play lol. Its definitely way out of my skill level but that¬ the point anyways
