Historical Note |
|
Musical Note | The cover indicates that the music was transcribed from an old Danish melody. Marie Tetel was Danish by birth, so it is very likely that she supplied a melody that Cora Edgerly then transcribed and arranged. The opening phrase closely resembles early versions of “King Christian,” which by 1917 was a national air of Denmark. |
