Susanne,

About three years ago, Len published a tape of field recordings he had made over the years - mostly older singers. It came complete with a booklet of notes , words etc. Can't remmeber what it was called at the moment but you could certainly get it through John Moulden's "Ulstersongs" operation - there's a link in the Links page for members. Taglioni was one of the songs on the tape.

A quick Alta Vista search confirms the ballet connection!

Regards

p.s. Len does, indeed, sing the song himself - but I'm not sure if he has recoded it.
