Thread Name: Lyr ADD: Is My Team Ploughing (A. E. Housman)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Does my team still plow or: Is my team
A.E. Housman. No "e" in the surname. From his collection "A Shropshire Lad".

The best-known setting is by Vaughan Williams, probably the only heterosexual composer to set it. It must have been set dozens of times by other English composers.
