Maggie May Samba - Guitar Trio

Maggie May Samba - 3 Guitars/large ensemble

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.
