StuartEstell Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 This is an attempt to come up with an arrangement in the style of Philip Glass, inpired by his "Songs from Liquid Days" which I've performed on piano with a couple of singers over the years. "Elizabeth My Dear" was the Stone Roses' appropriation of the famous Scarborough Fair tune for their own nefarious purposes. Monarchists may find this upsetting. https://soundcloud.com/lachenaliamusic/elizabeth-my-dear-stone-roses-cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaspar Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Great! I love the accompaniment. There is so hard to find new ways for singing accompaniment on duet concertina and your soundcloud clips helps me everytime. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartEstell Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 Thank you both -- much appreciated. There's probably more scope for using some of Glass's "signature" cross-rhythms, like constant triplet quavers across straight quavers, or the 3/4 rhythms in which he groups semiquavers in blocks of three against quavers, giving a four-against-three effect.
