Subject: RE: LYR MUS ADD: Moss Trooper's Lament From: Lesley N. Date: 17 May 99 - 06:34 PM Nope - I thought I put the updated URL in the links - but here it is: Folk Music of England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and America
And if you just got to the root URL there is an image map to all of the pages at my site - Popular Songs in American History, Francis J. Child Ballads, Turlough O'Carolan and Taylor's Traditional Tunebook... Sounds like a lot huh? But the Child and American Pages have the same music as is on the main folk page - The American page has American tunes (most being immigrant tunes, of course) by time period and the Child page has all the child ballads listed by number and volume as well as a complete list of them (I am up to 52 of them!!) Who says obssession is a perfume? |

Subject: Lyr/Tune Add: MOSS TROOPER'S LAMENT From: Lesley N. Date: 16 May 99 - 09:38 PM I probably should have done this in the other thread...
According to Vocal Melodies of Scotland (circa 1830-40) an unnamed lady presented this song to Sir Walter Scott. Scott gave it to Finlay Dun who created this arrangement. Finlay Dun was a music teacher in Edinburgh.
