This is the first publication of three of Walton's early songs (1918) for high voice and piano. Lyrical and charming, the songs are firmly in the English pastoral vein. The set is completed with 'The Winds', published in 1921, and the volume includes an introduction by Alan Cuckston which sets the songs in context.
