Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Old English Ballads: With an Accompaniment of Decorative Drawings Goethe, who saw so many things with such clear ness of vision, brought out the charm of the popular hallad for readers of a later day in his remark that the value of these songs of the people is to he found in the fact that their motives are drawn directly from nature; and he added, that in the art of saying things compactly, uneducated men have greater shill than those who are educated. It is certainly true that no hind of verse is so completely out of the atmosphere of modern writing as the popular hallad.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Old French and English Ballads The music of these songs has been taken, as a rule, from the oldest forms available, and for the choice between them, when variants exist, the editor's liking has been the sole determinisz ing factor. With regard to time, it is as well to notice that the minim must be taken at the rate of a crotchet in our days. When the type was designed a question arose as to the use of bars. Bars are a device to awaken a sense of rhythm in those naturally deficient in it, unknown to music at the time when these songs were writ, ten, and we have not thought it necessary to in, trude them. The emphasis must be determined by the words themselves, even the relative length of the notes is a matter of approximation only. A song like la Courte Pa1lle for ex, ample, which has never been conventionalised, can only be written down by varying the time signature from bar to bar, and even then the re: which I mean one who sings the words to be understood, intuitively produces.

Download or read book The New Penguin Book of English Folk Songs written by Julia Bishop and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2012-06-07 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the Spectator's Books of the Year 2012 'Farewell and adieu to you fair Spanish ladies Farewell and adieu to you ladies of Spain For we've received orders for to sail for old England But we hope in a short while to see you again' One of the great English popular art forms, the folk song can be painful, satirical, erotic, dramatic, rueful or funny. They have thrived when sung on a whim to a handful of friends in a pub; they have bewitched generations of English composers who have set them for everything from solo violin to full orchestra; they are sung in concerts, festivals, weddings, funerals and with nobody to hear but the singer. This magical new collection brings together all the classic folk songs as well as many lesser-known discoveries, complete with music and annotations on their original sources and meaning. Published in cooperation with the English Folk Dance and Song Society, it is a worthy successor to Ralph Vaughan Williams and A.L.Lloyd's original Penguin Book of English Folk Songs. 'Her keen eye did glitter like the bright stars by night The robe she was wearing was costly and white Her bare neck was shaded with her long raven hair And they called her pretty Susan, the pride of Kildare' In association with EFDSS, the English Folk Dance and Song Society
