England enjoys a rich folk song tradition. Composers such as Cecil Sharp and Vaughan Williams rekindled an interest in this heritage at the beginning of the 20th century by arranging numerous songs, some of which were transcribed for the _x001F_first time. Philip Sparke selected three songs from the 18th and 19 century for his Three Folk Song Miniatures: the _x001F_shermanâ??s song Dance to Your Daddy, the love song O Waly, Waly and Bobby Shafto, a song from the northwest of England.

Engeland heeft een rijke traditie op het gebied van volksmuziek die door de jaren heen een beetje in de vergetelheid raakte. Componisten als Cecil Sharp en Vaughan Williams brachten hierin verandering door voor het eerst talloze liederen bundelen en soms zelfs voor het eerst tenoteren in modern notenschrift. Philip Sparke koos voor dit werk drie liederen uit de 18e en 19e eeuw: het visserslied Dance to Your Daddy, het liefdeslied O Waly, Waly en Bobby Shafto, een lied uit het Noord-Westen van Engeland.
