In December 1903, Ralph Vaughan Williams began his collection of folk songs.

4 December 1903 Vaughan Williams collected nineteen songs in the village of Ingrave, near Brentwood, Essex, including six from Mr Potiphar, four from a Mrs Horsnell, and five from a Mr Bloomfield. The first of these was Bushes and Briars sung by 74-year-old labourer Charles Potiphar. Vaughan Williams proclaimed "I felt it was something I had known all my life".

7 December 1903 Vaughan Williams was clearly excited by his discovery of folk singers. Only three days after his visit to Ingrave, he arranged for Henry Burstow to travel the ten miles from Horsham to his home at Leith Hill Place, where he used a phonograph to record the old man singing at least eight songs. One of these was Basket of Eggs, also known as The Biter Bit. Burstow remembered ‘I was amazed beyond expression to hear my own songs thus repeated in my own voice.’

Late December 1903 Vaughan Williams was at his childhood home, Leith Hill Place, for the Christmas holidays when he set off on his bike ‘equipped with notebook and pencil’ to find songs ‘almost at his own doorstep’. Vaughan Williams didn’t note down the exact date when he heard ‘The Ploughboy’s Dream’ sung by Mr Garman, but it was probably sung a couple of days after Christmas when he collected further songs from another local resident near his home at Leith Hill Place, Surrey. In The English Hymnal, Vaughan Williams matched the tune, now familiar as Forest Green, with the words of a mid-19th century American poem, ‘O Little Town of Bethlehem’, written by Phillips Brooks, an Episcopalian preacher from New England.

‘The Poachers’ sung by Isaac Longhurst at Broadmoor, Surrey. Isaac Longhurst lived at Forest Green. Mr Garman lived at Ockley. Vaughan Williams probably got their home villages mixed up when he met the two men at Broadmoor on the day when Garman sang ‘The Ploughboy’s Dream'.

See Vaughan Williams's Journey into Folk by Caroline Davison https://carolinedavison.substack.com/ with links to recordings where you can hear her sing the first verse of a song from each of the forty days that Vaughan Williams collected them, between December 1903 and January 1905.

24 December. On this day;

1818: A mouse put the organ out of order at St Nicholas Church, Oberndorf, Austria. Franz Xaver Gruber rescued the Christmas music for midnight mass by writing a carol for guitar and choir. It was called “Stille Nacht” (”Silent Night”). Gruber wrote the tune, but Josef Mohr wrote the lyrics for “Silent Night”.

1828: The trial of William Burke began in Edinburgh. The other body-snatcher, William Hare, had turned king’s evidence and was not brought to trial. Sentenced to death, Burke was hanged on 28 January 1829.

BURKE AND HARE https://mudcat.org/@displaysong.cfm?SongID=993

John Doyle sings Burke and Hare; using the nursery rhyme as a chorus; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBeT3DxK4Qo

Burke and Hare sung by Robin Laing; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIH91SoRMNs

"Burke And Hare" is a novelty song with lyrics by Norman Newell and music composed and conducted by Roger Webb. Newell (1919-2004) was a record producer who also co-wrote many songs. "Burke And Hare" was recorded by The Scaffold, and was used at the beginning of the 1972 Kenneth Shipman production Burke & Hare which was also known as Horrors Of Burke And Hare. https://www.songfacts.com/facts/the-scaffold/burke-and-hare

1871: Verdi’s opera Aida had its world premiere in Cairo.
