By Harry Belafonte. By Irving Burgie and William Attaway. Arranged by Mario Stallbaumer. Multicultural,Pop,Traditional,World. Score. 4 pages. Mario Stallbaumer #818275. Published by Mario Stallbaumer (A0.1221992).With this sheet music, you can play "Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)" on piano!
It's an accurate, carefully created piano arrangement of the famous recording by Harry Belafonte (in the original key of F# major).
If you find all those black keys a bit too challenging, you can also get the same arrangement transposed by one half step (from F# major to G major)!
Originally a Jamaican folk song (with traditional mento and calypso elements), Harry Belafonte turned it into his signature song and worldwide hit when he recorded it in 1956.
"Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)" makes for a wonderful piano cover!
