Hi Q

Thanks very much for the info re Britten's 'Catalan Suite' "Montjuich" (1937). That was great. I didn't know B.B. had written such a suite!

I have now looked at this piece and heard samples at Amazon.co.uk, and as I thought it might be, this B.B. composition IS an instrumental piece. So that's not the one.

I am fairly sure the song I am after is an old folk song. I will keep on hunting! . . . !

Thanks again

M.W.
