Percy Grainger's Bold William Taylor tells the darkly humorous story of William Taylor and his lover Sarah and it's eventful subject matter, including love, death, unfaithfulness and revenge, is common amongst English folk songs. Grainger's setting captures the light-hearted tone of the story perfectly and is both energetic and expressive whilst keeping its folk-like charm. Originally written in 1908 and published in Grainger's British Folk Music Settings (No. 42), this new Edition Schott publication is scored for either Mezzo Soprano or Baritone.
