Rousing sea shanteys are a popular listening trend – here's one your students can soon play in no time! Perfect for most second-year players or even those at the end of the first year of instruction, this catchy folk tune uses quarter notes, paired eighths, and dotted quarters. The cello and bass parts are doubled, everyone gets the melody, and everyone stays primarily in first position. Most likely originating in the 1830s in New Zealand, the lyrics describe waiting for supplies to be delivered by ship by the Wellerman brothers. (1:45)
