THE BIRMINGHAM STUDIO CHORUS and AUGMENTED ORCHESTRA
Conducted by JOSEPH LEWIS THIS is the old song of the Three
Huntsmen, set by Sir Walford Davies for .small chorus and orchestra. The first part, in a regular galloping rhythm, announces the three huntsmen ; the second, movement, with changes of rhythm and mood, tells how they hunted and found the boggart and then three children. In the third part they meet the fat pig and the two young lovers, reaching the conclusion that hunting didn't pay, but that they had had a rattling day. The score is rich in merry, even humorous effects, and the rollicking text is illuminated in the happy way one would expect from Sir Walford Davies.
