Fragile - Sting

[Howard33]

I was wondering if anyone has found either tab or musical notation for this song for the mandolin. Or, has anyone run across a .mp3 or internet video of someone playing the song?

I would certainly love to learn how to play it, but I am equally curious just hear how it might sound.

Thanks

no tabs but it sounds easy enough to work out if you play along on youtube. should sound wonderful on mandolin - solo or in accompaniment with just the right amount of tremolo.

good choice!

I did a google search and the sheet music is available at a number of locations.

It would probably sound best on an Octave.

Well, I found it on Youtube and it sounds as good as I thought it would, atleast I believe its a mando he's plucking away at...

While I have had my mandolin for four months, I have only been taking lessons for two. In that time, I have been working on simply learning the up/down stroke, tremolo, reading music, learning the strings and their notes, etc. We have not really gone over memorization of basic chording, although I have started to work on it by myself outside of my formal lessons.

While I have also found several sites where the music can be purchased, I am not sure how to compensate for the inability to play all of the notes that are written for guitar although I'm sure this is where being able to simply play the chords for each measure would come in handy.
