I'll Tell Me Ma

Our arrangement of this 19th century traditional English children's song is a blast to sing! It features Irish whistle, fiddle, accordion, banjo, and a bodhrán on top of a traditional rhythm section. The instruments in the introduction and the recurring vamps play the vocal melody line, so you'll know what to expect.

This is a very energetic song: By the end it's a big party! Invite your audience to sing and clap along after verse two. After they sing a chorus with you, the fun begins. We add an accelerando that eventually ends at an almost unsustainable pace. But it's fine if it falls apart at the end. Just start whooping, hollering, and clapping for the big finish, and everyone will have a great time! (from Music K-8, Vol. 31, No. 4)
