Elegy

[Rayblewit]

My biggest challenge . .
To play "Elegy" on my keyboard.
This one of my favourite jethro tull tunes of all time.
Just a beautiful tune and no vocal. Magnificent guitar sound by Martin Barre half way through as well as Ian's sensational flute. Have a listen below. .

Anyway, I want to play this tune. I downloaded the sheet music but no chords.
I asked chatgpt to help me and they directed me to chordify.
Does anyone use chordify?
I am finding it most helpful.

Many thanks for resurrecting this in my tired old memory.

It is a fantastic piece to learn and play, so much so I bought the sheet music which only amounted to two guitar parts and a flute, no chords, so I’ll now annotate what I have and dust it off again.

It did have to shown that damn F chord on the guitar did it not, that is just about the worst chord for a guitarist to get their fingers around and for years it has been impossible for me due to arthritis in my hand which would you not know is worst in my left. Easy peasy of course on the keyboard.

I did start to learn it way back in 2018 but the hip replacement op knocked me back and I forgot all about it, it is now back on my keyboard and a task for the next few days.

Thanks again and good luck learning it yourself.
