Over the Rainbow (complete version)

There is one note that I cannot produce. I believe this song requires a range that exceeds that of the iPhone ocarina. If I am wrong please let me know. Enjoy!

Solid work. Sounds good to me. What part did you not think was correct? What line?

"where troubles melt like lemon drops.. above the chimney tops thats where you'll FIND me."

the note that corresponds to FIND in the lyrics, toward the end. I believe I may have started on a note that is a tad high.

Thanks for the support.

No, you've got it right Sully, there's too large a spread for the whole song to be played without an octave shift. Might I suggest changing the 15 15 13 6 to 15 15 13 11 6 for that part though. That puts the "find me" on the first harmony part and sounds better than dropping the note.

Perk, I incorporated your suggestion and added dashes and spaces. Cheers.

Beautiful. Thank you!

sounds great. however... A) i noticed a wrong note, and it occured quite a few times. B) it's called SOMEWHERE over the rainbow, not just over the rainbow. sounds great, though, thanks for posting it. :D

The song sounds perfect as is to me. Feel free to post another rendition with your changes so that we can all see what it is that you think should be different.

The actual name of the song as sung by Judy Garland in The Wizard of Oz is "Over the Rainbow". The score that is posted is slightly abbreviated, probably for two reasons: A) The removed parts are very similar to the included parts, and B) a 4-hole ocarina, even in Zeldarian cannot play all the notes in the included sections, let alone the excluded ones.

In the scored version above, there are 2 notes that are not correct and they appear together at the end of the middle part of the score. The first of the 2 notes should be a "high C" (in A# Ionian) but that note is unavailable. A G (60 in "Punzonian" shorthand) is scored instead. The note that follows should be a G but is scored as an F (66) instead. Although these notes are "wrong", I'm not sure there is a better choice. You could drop the C down an octave and play 86 followed by the G 60 and you might like that one better.

Edit: I re-read this thread and saw that the original Scorer, Sully, discusses the exact notes I speak of in this post. They correspond to "find me" in, "where troubles melt like lemon drops away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me".

I've played this score many times and it is one of my favorites. If someone else can figure out a way to improve it, please feel free to post a generator link on this thread.

No change to the notes. This is just a formatting to change to make the song fit on a page. It is now 10 instead of 16 lines of notes.
