Greensleeves A tune by this name was registered at the London Stationer's Company in 1580 as: "A New Northern Dittye of the Lady Greene Sleeves." No copy of that printing is known. It appears in the surviving A Handful of Pleasant Delights (1584) as: "A New Courtly Sonnet of the Lady Green Sleeves. To the new tune of Green sleeves. "It remains debatable whether this suggests that an old tune of "Greensleeves" was in circulation, or which one our familiar tune is. The widely-believed legend is that it was composed by King Henry VIII of England (1491-1547) for his lover and future queen consort Anne Boleyn. Anne, the youngest daughter of Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire, rejected Henry's attempts to seduce her... The famous poet, painter, designer, translator Dante created the paintings in this video. One amongst them called: "My Lady Greensleeves" Tags: greensleeves guitar solo classic dante art renaissance |

Greensleeves Greensleeves Anonymous setting from the Ballet Lute book, which is probably the earliest known setting of the tune, and Francis Cutting's (1571 - 1596) set of variations upon it. Paula Bär-Giese - soprano Hans Meijer - lute High bitrate performance: http://web.mac.com/musicksmonument/Websites_for_museums/Holbein_project-Greensleeves.html IPOD DOWNLOAD http://web.mac.com/musicksmonument/Startpage/Free_iPod_downloads_YouTube_Movies.html Recorded at Castle Radboud-Medemblik: http://web.mac.com/musicksmonument/Castle_Radboud/Castle_Radboud_Medemblik-The_Netherlands.html Handsome, gifted and recently married to Catherine of Aragon, King Henry VIII was the envy of Europe when he penned 35 royal compositions in the early years of his long and turbulent reign. (Thirty-five Compositions Ref: E1801 The complete secular works of King Henry VIII consisting of partsongs and instrumental consorts. Publisher Stainer & Bell) Truly a Renaissance prince, he was also a gifted composer who excelled in portraying the pleasures of courtly life through words and music. His daughter, Elizabeth, inherited his gifts, and was a keen dancer and an excellent performer on the virginals. "Greensleeves" is a traditional English folk song and tune, basically a ground of the form called a romanesca. A widely-believed (but completely unproven) legend is that it was composed by King Henry VIII of England (1491-1547) for his lover and future queen consort Anne Boleyn. Anne, the youngest daughter of Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire, rejected Henry's attempts to seduce her. This rejection is apparently referred to in the song, when the writer's love "cast me off discourteously." It is not known if the legend is true, but the song is still commonly associated with Boleyn in the public mind. Hans Holbein (1497/8--1543) was the first great British artist, and is regarded as one of the greatest artists of all time. He moved to England from Basel in 1526--8 and then again in 1532--43, an extremely turbulent time in English history when all around were losing their heads. His arrival effectively brought the Renaissance in painting from continental Europe to Britain. Hans Holbein project: http://web.mac.com/musicksmonument/Hans_Holbein/Hans_Holbein_slideshow_%26_Greensleeves_.html Alas, my love, you do me wrong To cast me off discourteously For I have loved you well and long Delighting in your company. Greensleeves was all my joy Greensleeves was my delight Greensleeves was my heart of gold And who but my lady Greensleeves Your vows you've broken, like my heart Oh, why did you so enrapture me Now I remain in a world apart But my heart remains in captivity Greensleeves was all my joy Greensleeves was my delight Greensleeves was my heart of gold And who but my lady Greensleeves. I have been ready at your hand, To grant whatever you would crave, I have both wagered life and land, Your love and good-will for to have. Greensleeves was all my joy Greensleeves was my delight Greensleeves was my heart of gold And who but my lady Greensleeves. If you intend thus to disdain, It does the more enrapture me, And even so, I still remain A lover in captivity. Greensleeves was all my joy Greensleeves was my delight Greensleeves was my heart of gold And who but my lady Greensleeves. Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu, To God I pray to prosper thee, For I am still thy lover true, Come once again and love me. Greensleeves was all my joy Greensleeves was my delight Greensleeves was my heart of gold And who but my lady Greensleeves.

Greensleeves Two Styles Isn't "Greensleeves" to the guitar, like "Lady Of Spain" is to the accordion? And I mean that in a good way. In this clip I first play it in the traditional style and then in a syncopated "ragtime" style. This is an on-the-spot improvisation. I thought of the idea, played it once through, and made the clip. I play by ear and do not use and have any notation or "tabs". - Fret Killer see info at http://www.youtube.com/fretkillr Tags: acoustic guitar fingerpicking greensleeves traditional ragtime |

Greensleeves Legend has it that Greensleeves was composed by Henry VIII but no evidence exists to prove this, However a ballad with the same name was registered in 1580. Alas, my love, you do me wrong, To cast me off discourteously. For I have loved you well and long, Delighting in your company. Chorus: Greensleeves was all my joy Greensleeves was my delight, Greensleeves was my heart of gold, And who but my lady greensleeves. Your vows you've broken, like my heart, Oh, why did you so enrapture me? Now I remain in a world apart But my heart remains in captivity. chorus I have been ready at your hand, To grant whatever you would crave, I have both wagered life and land, Your love and good-will for to have. chorus If you intend thus to disdain, It does the more enrapture me, And even so, I still remain A lover in captivity. chorus My men were clothed all in green, And they did ever wait on thee; All this was gallant to be seen, And yet thou wouldst not love me. chorus Thou couldst desire no earthly thing, but still thou hadst it readily. Thy music still to play and sing; And yet thou wouldst not love me. chorus Well, I will pray to God on high, that thou my constancy mayst see, And that yet once before I die, Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me. chorus Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu, To God I pray to prosper thee, For I am still thy lover true, Come once again and love me.
