Stewart (A0.1512565). “Green Bushes”, an immensely popular traditional English folk song (c.1760’s) is about a young man walking one morning who overhears a woman singing of her true love. He immediately offers her rich clothing if she will marry him instead. She rejects his offer, and yet almost immediately, she changes her mind, on condition that he be 'loyal and constant'. Finally, the erstwhile true love appears and is disappointed as he sees the pair disappearing into the distance. The green bushes are both part of the landscape and a symbol of virginity. This arrangement is scored for 4-part SATB ensemble to be performed a cappella. Performance time: 3:50+-.
