    Does anyone have a source for this tune?

    There is an nice long arrangement for accordion only on
    a musette website mentioned in another discussion group.
    A mandolin orchestra arrangement would be most desired.
    thanks

    No orchestra arrangement, but there are two different mandolin arrangements in TablEdit format at the Mandozine website here. One is quite straightforward to play, the other rather more elaborate and jazzy. You may be able to split it up into orchestra parts.

    Do those just have the main theme?
    I'm looking for all the different parts with
    the key changes.
    thanks

    The simple version is just the main theme, the more elaborate jazz arrangement is 102 bars with no repeats, so it's rather longer, and it has two separate chordal harmony parts, one for mandolin and one for guitar.

    I checked out your suggestions.
    The jazz version only plays the main theme with variations.
    My copy has an intro, main theme in C, another part in F,
    then a bridge, back to main theme,yet another part in F, back to intro and theme, then Coda.
    The search contiunes...
    thanks

    Bill:
    Where is this accordion version? Can you give us a link? You may not find a free orchestra version but this may give you enought to go on.
