Percy Grainger (1882-1961) began work on SHEPHERD'S HEY in 1908 for piano solo, published for the first time in 1911. Based on an English Morris Dance, the melody was collected by Cecil J. Sharp from the playing of the fiddler of the Bidford Morris Dancers in 1906, J. Mason. Grainger arranged several versions as British Folk-Music Settings, including this No. 3. Instrumentation: 1.0.1.0: 1.0.0.0: Str 7tet (3Vn.2Va.2Vc.CB): Solo Concertina. Reprint edition.
