So what would have happened if Maggie May, the “lady of the night” who robbed a sailor, had instead learned some South American dance moves...? Let’s find out!
Here's a fun piece for players and audience alike - the traditional shanty “Maggie May” opens with a traditional-sounding introduction before suddenly bursting into something much more South American.
With slightly jazzy harmonies and two contrasting rhythms happening underneath, there’s definitely a party atmosphere to this piece.
Guitar 3 is supplied in both treble and bass clefs - in a larger ensemble, you can use one or both in your ensemble. And it’s ideal for those with limited experience of guitar.
