"The Foggy Dew" ~ air, march & in 3/4 as a waltz ~ e & b minor, etc…

Yes, we did… I suspect some others out there will have also given this a swing in 3/4 time. I’d love to see some different takes no this…

Here’s the march take on it:

"given this a swing"

Double entendre?

Re: The Foggy Dew

As my transposition skills completely suck at the best of times, can anyone post this tune in D minor? I have a friend who sings it in that key and would like to accompany him when possible.

Thanks

Re: The Foggy Dew

But does your friend sing it in 3/4 time? The original post suggests this is a special "swung" waltzy version of it. I have only ever heard it sung in 4/4 march time.

Re: The Foggy Dew

He sings it in 4/4, but I can easily make that adjustment on the setting.
