  • Barbara Allen
    120 Charles Seeger Versions and Variants of the Tunes of "Barbara Allen" As sung in traditional singing styles in the United States and recorded by field collectors who have deposited their discs and tapes in the Archive of American Folk Song in the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. AFS L 54 Edited by Charles Seeger PROBABLY IT IS safe to say that most English-speaking people in the United States know at least one ballad-tune or a derivative of one. If it is not "The Two Sisters, " it will surely be "When Johnny Comes Marching Home"; or if not "The Derby Ram, " then the old Broadway hit "Oh Didn't He Ramble." If. the title is given or the song sung to them, they will say "Oh yes, I know tllat tune." And probably that tune, more or less as they know it, is to them, the tune of the song. If they hear it sung differently, as may be the case, they are as likely to protest as to ignore or even not notice the difference. Afterward, in their recognition or singing of it, they are as likely to incor­ porate some of the differences as not to do so. If they do, they are as likely to be aware as to be entirely unconscious of having done ·so. But if they ad­ mit the difference yet grant that both singings are of "that" tune, they have taken the first step toward the study of the ballad-tune. They have acknow­ ledged that there are enough resemblances between the two to allow both to be called by the same name.

I can pean folklore (and, I would think, further afield as think of one of them already and I nearly included well). The tune was collected by Hammond from it, but as it‟s a variant of „„The Braes of Yarrow,” William Bartlett in Wimborne, Dorset, and is of which I gave a version before, I‟ll set it aside in accompanied by the comment that it is “a mixture favour of the following.

  • Broadside Ballads
    BROADSIDE BALLADS Sabine Baring-Gould "I love a ballad in print, a' life," said Mopsa, in the "Winter's Tale," and the clown confessed to the same liking. "I love a ballad but even too well; if it be doleful matter merrily set down, or a very pleasant thing indeed and sung lamentably." In 1653 Dorothy Osborne tells Sir William Temple that she has received from her brother a ballad " much older than my Lord of Lorne, and she sends it on to him." Would that she had told us more about it. And then she writes, " The heat of the day is spent in reading or working, and about six or seven o'clock I walk out into a common that lies hard by the house, where a great many young wenches keep sheep and cows, and sit in the shade singing of ballads. I go to them and compare their voices and beauties to some ancient shepherdesses that I have read of and find a vast difference there; but, trust me, I think these are as innocent as those could be. I talk to them, and find they want nothing to make them the happiest people in the world but the knowledge that they are so." Walton in his "Complete Angler," printed in the very same year in which Dorothy Osborne wrote to her lover of the singing peasant girls, says : "I entered into the next field, and a second pleasure entertained me: 'twas a handsome milk-maid, that had cast away all care, and sung like a nightingale; her voice was good, and the ditty fitted for it ; 'twas that smooth song which was made by Kit Marlow, now at least fifty years ago ; and the milk-maid's mother sung an answer to it, which

  • Ancient Poems, Ballads and Songs of the Peasantry of England
    Ancient Poems, Ballads and Songs of the Peasantry of England Taken down from oral recitation and transcribed from private manuscripts, rare broadsides and scarce publications. INTRODUCTION. IN 1846, the Percy Society issued to its members a volume entitled ANCIENT POEMS, BALLADS, AND SONGS OF THE PEASANTRY OF ENGLAND, edited by Mr. James Henry Dixon. The sources drawn upon by Mr. Dixon are intimated in the following extract from his preface:- He who, in travelling through the rural districts of England, has made the road-side inn his resting-place, who has visited the lowly dwellings of the villagers and yeomanry, and been present at their feasts and festivals, must have observed that there are certain old poems, ballads, and songs, which are favourites with the masses, and have been said and sung from generation to generation. This traditional, and, for the most part, unprinted literature, - cherished in remote villages, resisting everywhere the invasion of modern namby-pamby verse and jaunty melody, and possessing, in an historical point of view, especial value as a faithful record of the feeling, usages, and modes of life of the rural population, - had been almost wholly passed over amongst the antiquarian revivals which constitute one of the distinguishing features of the present age. While attention was successfully drawn to other forms of our early poetry, this peasant minstrelsy was scarcely touched, and might be considered unexplored ground. There was great difficulty in collecting materials which lay scattered so widely, and which could be procured in their genuine simplicity only from the people amongst whom they originated, and with whom they are as 'familiar as household words.' It was even still more difficult to find an editor who combined genial literary taste with the local knowledge of character, customs, and dialect, indispensable to the collation of such reliques; and thus, although their national interest was universally recognised, they were silently permitted to fall into comparative oblivion.

  • The Child Ballad in Canada: a Survey1
    THE CHILD BALLAD IN CANADA: A SURVEY1 LAUREL DOUCETTE and COLIN QUIGLEY While many folklorists might find the tabulation of Child ballad statistics a tedious and somewhat anachronistic exercise, few would deny the historical value of describing in detail the results of one phase of Canadian folksong research. It is our contention, however, that such an exercise serves deeper scholarly concerns. As an examination of a regional classical ballad repertoire, this survey provides a base for comparison with other regions. Given the broad geographic distribution and time depth represented by this genre, the Child ballads are well suited for such comparative study. More­ over, as the oldest level of the Anglo-Canadian song tradition, the national Child ballad repertoire forms an important base for folk­ song study within this country. An examination of maintenance and loss of story types within the Child corpus, as well as analysis of transformations undergone by individual ballads, could reveal culturally-specific concerns which may be reflected throughout the entire Canadian folksong repertoire. In addressing this topic, we have very little to go on other than the recorded corpus of material, for most song collections were made before the concept of “context” was introduced to folklore field research. The corpus, however, is substantial, and bears close examination in terms of its composition, distribution, and narrative style. Throughout this paper, when we use the term “ballad,” we mean “Child ballad” ; and we use the titles adopted by Child, followed by the number assigned by him.2 Ballad Research in Canada The earliest record of a British traditional ballad in Canada dates to 1898 when Phillips Barry published a text of “The Gypsy Laddie” (Ch 200) collected in Nova Scotia.3 In 1910 and 1912, W.

  • The Ballad Book a Selection of the Choicest
    THE BALLAD BOOK A SELECTION OF THE CHOICEST WILLIAM ALLINGHAM The Old Ballads' suggests as distinct a set of impressions as the name of Shakspeare, Spenser, or Chaucer ; but on looking close we find ourselves puzzled ; the sharp bounding lines disappear the mountain chain so definite on the horizon is found to be a disunited and intricate region. Perhaps most people's notion of the Old Ballads is formed out of recollections of Percy's Reliques Ritson's Robin Hood set, Scott's Border Minstrelsy as re- positories ; of ' Sir Patrick Spens,' Clerk Saunders,'tions, dissertations, notes, appendices, commenta- ries, controversies, of an antiquarian, historical, or pseudo-historical nature, wherein the poetry is packed, like pots of dainties and wine-flasks in straw and sawdust. In most of the collections, lyrics and metrical tales are associated with the Ballads proper, and it has been usual, besides, to load on a heap of Modern Imitations. All honour and gratitude to the collectors and editors, greater and lesser ; (yet one must venture to say that the really fine and favourite Old Ballads have hitherto formed the vital portions of a set of volumes which are, on the whole, rather lumpish and unreadable. The feast they offer is somewhat like an olla podrida' of Spenser's Fairy Queen, Dodsles Miscellany the driest columns of Notes and Queries, and a selection from the Poet's Comer of the provincial newspapers. The Ballads which we give have, one and all, no connection of the slightest importance with history. , Things that did really happen are no doubt shadowed forth in many of them, but with such a careless confu- sion of names, places, and times, now thrice and thirty .times confounded by alterations in course of oral transmission, vaiious versions, personal and local adaptations, not to speak of editorial emendations, that it is mere waste of time and patience to read (if any one ever does read) those grave disquisitions, historical and antiquarian, wherewith it has been the fashion to encumber many of these rudely pictu- resque and pathetic poems.
