Ernest Tomlinson – Fantasia on Auld Lang Syne (Annotated with Quoted Melodies)



Corrections: 2:18 is “Go In and Out the Window” rather than “New York Girls”; 7:51 may be “Tom, Tom the Piper’s Son” instead of “Muffin Man” (although it sounds like a combination of both tunes), and the unidentified tune at 15:27 is “Comin’ Thro’ the Rye”.

Special thanks to Shengjun Wang for the score, and special no-thanks to whoever decided to remove YouTube’s annotation feature.

  1. What a magnificent effort, Rob!
    We must also commend (as well as Mr. Tomlinson!) the players, for whom it must have been difficult not to carry on playing the pieces some of which they must know so well!
    (Churlish to ask, but – any chance of you redoing to incorporate the corrections/additions here?)

    I always think of the alternative words to ALS – "A smile is such a happy thing".
