' Cadet Roussel ' is a French folk song and forms one of a collection of folk songs in modern settings known as the ' Repertoire Collignon '. There are several verses to the song-a characteristic of folk ballads-and four English composers, Frank Bridge. Arnold Bax , John Ireland, and Eugene Goossens , were each asked to set the accompaniment of one, or more, verses in their own manner for inclusion in the collection. Subsequently Goossens, when crossing America by railroad, passed his time in scoring his own and his colleagues' settings for orchestra.
