Australia’s most famous Bush Ballad and Unofficial National Anthem. It is in the Public Domain and NOT under Copyright, so OK to post here. Arranged by me for my Son and family, who emigrated to Oz in search of a “better life”, found it and are now full Australian Citizens. Quite a different arrangement to the usual ones – I hope that you like the idea. Style is _DRMYPOP.STY (Country Pop w/ Dreamy Fills) plus Mods RealTracks in style: 366:Bass, Electric, Country Ev 065 RealTracks in song: 365:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 085 RealTracks in song: 362:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 085 RealTracks in song: 1752:Accordion, Rhythm Pop8ths Ev 110 RealTracks in song: 1538:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopBelieveHeld Ev16 065 RealTracks in song: 1841:Synth Pad, PopModernGrooveHigh Ev16 075 RealDrums [in style:NashvilleEven8^2-a:Sidestick, HiHat , b:Snare, HiHat Yep – the Accordion is in there again. Guitar is my beloved Strat. Ian https://soundcloud.com/user-625544847/waltzing-matilda

Hi Ember - glad you enjoyed it. I'll certainly try and put up more with the Accordion in it - just for you.  Hi Sundance - THank you. Maybe a bit on the slower, melancholy side but that was how I was feeling at the time. Ian

Well done sixchannel, thanks for sharing this! Fantastic selection of instruments here and rhythm is easy to follow. That synth pad is a nice touch. Well done!

Wow - nice work on this  Very tranquil and peaceful on the ears. The kind of tune you can close your eyes and get lost in. Very vibe-y and I love the subtle progressions. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
Deryk

Hi Jim - thank you. Its quite a reflective version, I think. Our GD, Chloe, now VERY Oz, sings this song with some gusto.
Hi Joe - I love the Real Tracks and what you can do with them. That Accordion (1752) is really versatile and the Synth (1841) just fills the end nicely.
Hi Deryk - thank you too. The original has very basic chords of course and the Beauty of BiaB is how you can try to vary the chord progressions with some chord variations.
Ian

Nice work on this. I'm not familiar with this song.... but I think I've heard it a time or two in the past..... somewhere....
I like the clean tone you used on the strat.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Hi Herb, thanks for listening. Back to my hand-built Strat for this one.
Neck pickup - Kinman FV's.

Very nice and done with a good feeling.
I read once about the meaning of the song,
you know, the symbols of what all was being
sung about. That was fun.

Stefan Hi Stefan, yes it was. I was thinking about them and the lack of for real hugs and so that's how the arrangement was born. "Lady" is a beautiful guitar, physically and musically. Ian

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
