Bredon Hill and Other Songs is a song cycle for baritone and piano composed by George Butterworth (1885Шаблон:Ndash1916) in 1912. It sets five poems from A. E. Housman's 1896 collection A Shropshire Lad.
Butterworth set another six poems from A Shropshire Lad in Six Songs from A Shropshire Lad (1911). Nine of the eleven songs were premiered at Oxford on 16 May 1911, by James Campbell McInnes (baritone) and the composer (piano).[1][2][3]
A performance typically takes 15 minutes. The songs are as follows, with Roman numerals from A Shropshire Lad:[4]
- XXI "Bredon Hill"
- XX "Oh Fair Enough Are Sky and Plain"
- VI "When the Lad for Longing Sighs"
- XXXV "On the Idle Hill of Summer"
- LIV "With Rue My Heart Is Laden"
