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.England kann auf eine lange Volkslied-Tradition zuru?ckblicken. Komponisten wie Cecil Sharp und Vaughan Williams weckten Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts erneut das Interesse an diesem Erbe, indem sie zahlreiche Lieder sammelten und teilweise erstmals notierten. Philip Sparke wählte fu?r seine drei Volkslied-Miniaturenâ?? drei Lieder aus dem 18. und 19. Jahrhundert: das Fischerlied Dance to Your Daddy, das Liebeslied O Waly, Waly und Bobby Shafto, ein Lied aus dem Nordwesten Englands.Comme beaucoup dâ??autres pays, lâ??Angleterre jouit dâ??une longue tradition de chansons traditionnelles transmises oralement au _x001C_fil des siècles. Three English Folk Song Miniatures rassemble trois airs populaires (Dance to you Daddy, O Waly, Waly et Bobby Shafto), prodigieusement arrangés pour orchestre junior ou formation incomplète. Comme dans toutes les publications de degré de diffi_x001F_culté 1 1 ½ des éditions Anglo Music, les parties des registres ténor et basse peuvent être jouées par diff_x001B_érents instruments, ce qui permettra aux orchestres incomplets de toujours produire un son ample et généreux.Lâ??Inghilterra è una nazione ricca di canti popolari. Allâ??inizio del XX secolo, compositori quali Cecil Sharp e Vaughan Williams risvegliarono lâ??interesse verso questa preziosa eredit raccogliendo e in parte arrangiando numerosi canti. Philip Sparke ha scelto per le sue â??tre miniatureâ?, altrettanti canti del XIII e XIX secolo: la canzone dei pescatori Dance to Your Daddy, O Waly, Waly, una canzone dâ??amore e Bobby Shafto, un canto proveniente dalla parte nord-occidentale del paese.

Sea Songs, commissioned jointly by Ars Nova Copenhagen and Glasgow Concert Halls, is a kind of sequel to Martland's Street Songs (originally written for the Kings Singers and Evelyn Glennie). As with the earlier piece, Martland made use of to the library of the English Folk Song and Dance Society at Cecil Sharp House in north London.I wanted specifically to find texts that were not just the usual nautical heave-ho sort of thing, but instead explored the dangers and hardships still being experienced by sailors as recently as the early 19th century. I was also very happy to see in these texts the sense of camaraderie and mutual support that existed between the sailors. (Steve Martland)Dance to your Daddy sets the scene of a sailor's wife at home, dandling her baby son and singing to him about his daddy away fishing, and about the future. Both the tune and the words come from the Northumberland area around Newcastle. This song is very well known in the UK and gave the title to a famous television series When the boat comes in.Fire Down Below is about the effects of fire - a constant danger on board wooden ships. At the end of this song the words take on an extended meaning: Fire in our hearts for the friends that we love.The Dead Horse is about the initial month of work without pay in which all seamen had to take part. They referred to it as the dead horse - hence the expression to flog a dead horse when something is a waste of time. The seamen resented this unpaid time, and the text expresses their frustrations metaphorically by listing what they would do to the horse! The music's frantic gallop alludes to the horse's desperation.Although The Sea Martyrs presents itself as a ballad, this text has a more literary feel, and unlike the other songs it doesn't include a chorus refrain. It concerns the sailors' lack of pay, the consequences of asking for pay (being hanged!), and the poverty of their families at home. The poem portrays the sailors' deaths as an almost religious sacrifice to help future seamen.At the end of the work, the opening of Dance to your Daddy returns as a kind of descant, sung by an angel calling to the hanged men. Paul Hillier, 2012.
