Anne's Song by John Denver

I originally heard the James Galway version of this song, played on the flute. As a result, the ocarina lends itself very nicely to doing what I think is a reasonable cover (providing you can persuade thing to work properly!!)

The second verse is exactly the same as the first apart from the penultimate note on the second line.

Hope you enjoy this - it took longer than I expected to transcribe! Comments welcome (even rude ones!)

Zeb.

Thanks for posting Zeb! Having these finger scores really makes it easy to play!

Great...

another version - with some timing hints... not sure that it is right...

CConverted into numeric "visually mneumonic" shorthand that is instantly learned without any memorization needed --

The only number digits used are 6, 9, 8, and 0.

"6" means the lower hole is closed (note that the little loop of the 6 is on the bottom)

"9" means the upper hole is closed (note that the little loop of the 9 is on the top)

"8" means both upper and lower holes are closed (note that the little loops of the 8 are at the top and bottom)

"0" means neither the upper or lower holes are closed (note that 0 has no little loops)

( so you can see the mneumonic aspect - visually it is just like the four circles in the square that is classically used)- So the numbers can be printed by computer or written by hand... so "88" is all the holes closed.. 99, both upper closed, 66 both lower closed, 00 none closed, and 86, 68, 89, and 98 follow suit... (the "6890" or Pundiak system)

have fun,
