Thread Name: HYMNS and Folk Tunes?
Subject: RE: HYMNS and Folk Tunes?
Oh ther're so many of them... Lord of all Hopefulness = Banks of the Bann I'll think again before tomorrow night, but there are a huge amount of dance tunes, so many 'English' carols are 16th century French dance tunes - 'Ding Dong Merrily on High' is a stamping good one to which I used to dance Border Morris;; ' O Little Town of Bethlehem'. Give me time to think... '29th May' is 'All things Bright & Beautiful' ....I could bore you on this one!!
