This is my fiddle duet, trio or group harmony arrangement of the traditional jig 'Out on the Ocean'. Sometimes played a lot faster, I like to take it a bit more slowly (sailing boat rather than motorboat...).
There are two harmony parts to accompany the tune. Each can be used on its own for a duet, or they can be overlaid together as a trio. My arrangement that you can hear shows how you can mix and match the harmonies to create a longer arrangement - in my version, I play just the tune for the first time through, then parts 1 and 3, followed by parts 1 and 2, and finally all three parts together.
Although it is scored for three violins, part 2 would also fit comfortably on a flute, D whistle or descant recorder.
*NEW!* This download now also includes bonus scores for string quartet. I have added a cello part to each tune, and provided the viola part as either alto clef (viola) or treble clef (violin 3). There is also an alto clef version of the cello part up an octave for a viola to play if needed. The string quartet score includes individual instrumental parts.
PLEASE NOTE:
* the recordings and midi files included are just for the violin trio arrangement. The string quartet score is a bonus item which was added later and has not been recorded.
* the piano part that you can hear in the recording is for the purpose of demonstrating the chord symbols that are included on the score. There is no scored piano part included in this download.
