I just saw an article here about this haunting, melodic classical piece. I assumed the author had included the music, but it turned out he was selling (!) his concert-style arrangement of it.
For those of us who'd like to play it a bit more casually, here it is (free) in leadsheet form. It's based on the video performance here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmCnQDUSO4I
For those who've never played from a leadsheet: When a chord appears with a slash, the part to the right of the slash indicates a specific bass note. E.g., "C7/G" means "play a C7 chord with a G bass note."
Enjoy, Andy
This polka I have arranged for four accordions and bass/guitar. The story is about a poor old man in Jämtland, NW Sweden, that has a terrible cold that makes it impossible for him to listen to the accordion music. So, when it says "SNYYYYT!" it means that everybody blows their noses. And "snörvel" means "snrf".
I had fun writing it, hopefully you will have fun playing it. There is lyrics too - only in Swedish. It was written and recorded by Thore Skogman sometimes in the sixties and was something of a plague. Every Swede knows the line where he shouts for "medicine, medicine, medicine at once!".
It takes some practise, I presume, but I also think it is a great showpiece because that is the whole purpose with it.
A groovy little cha-cha for two.
