Date notes

This arrangement was certainly performed in December 1942, but the Boosey & Hawkes statement of hire fees for January-June 1942 suggests that there may have been an earlier (and as yet untraced) performance of this arrangement in the first half of the year.

Genre: Folk song
With string orchestra
