Soon May the Wellerman Come - harp duet

Who would ever have thought a sea shanty could become such a hit around the world?? 'Soon May the Wellerman Come' is a sea shanty from New Zealand and is arranged here for two harps by a New Zealander!

The Wellerman refers to the nickname the whalers gave the men from Weller shipping company who dropped off their supplies while at sea.

This arrangement has something of a ragtime/dixie swing to it - all quavers are swung, and at its slowest its a nice lilting tune, but when you get your fingers around some of the trickier parts it can be a rousing tune!

Score, parts and audio included.
