GUEST,Lew Becker | Nineteenth-Century Folk Songs (42) | RE: Nineteenth-Century Folk Songs | 10 Aug 15 |
Your question brings up, again, the issue of what is meant by "traditional." Certainly there are many songs (including poems that picked up tunes somewhere) that are sung today as traditional that were written during the 19th century and whose authorship is known. Rose of Allandale, Three score and ten, Rising of the Moon (as well as many other Irish nationalistic songs), etc. |
