The Ballad of Green Broom, from Benjamin Britten's Five Flower Songs. Eclectic Voices conducted by Scott Stroman, recorded at Kings Place on 15 January 2011
I sang this in a choral group 40 years ago and never forgot about it even though I never heard it sung anywhere again. But today on a whim, I googled "Green Broom" to see if I could find it. So amazing to hear it again. A very challenging song but FUN. I am amazed how much of it I still remembered, like "Go fetch me that boy!" or the cool ending. The group in this video did a superb job!
