Secular, 21st century. Laurendale Associates #VS-1009. Published by Laurendale Associates (MN.VS-1009). English. The text is from Warning by Jenny Joseph. This is a humorous song about a woman thinking about all the unruly things she will do when she is an old woman. To catch a glimpse of her rebelious actions, the first line reads, When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple with a red hat which doesn't go and doesn't suit me. It's lighthearted and entertaining and great for a mezzo-soprano who is looking for a comic relief piece in a recital or any other similar occasion. Publisher : Laurendale Associates |
