GUEST,pete wood Tune Req: with wellington we'll go (13) RE: Tune Req: with wellington we'll go 12 Nov 13


Thanks to Jim Dixon for his info. Jim, I'm not sure which is you speaking and which the Musical Times,-only thing is that Rodney's successful battle was the Battle of the Saintes in 1782, which gave rise to the Song "Rodney's Glory" set to the tune of the Princess Royal and later becoming an Irish set dance and hornpipe. However, what the Musical Times seems to be saying is that the tune "Nutting Girl" was used for lots of things, as was Princess Royal. Interesting juxtaposition of morris tunes in song here. Thanks again
