Elizabethan Serenade
''Elizabethan Serenade'' is a light music composition by Ronald Binge. When it was first played by the Mantovani orchestra in 1951, it was simply titled "Andante cantabile", although the original orchestral manuscript parts in Ronald Binge's own hand show the title "The Man in the Street" (possibly the title of an early television documentary).〔Musiker, Reuben, et al. (1998): ''Conductors and composers of popular orchestral music: a biographical and discographical sourcebook''. Greenwood Publishing Group, ISBN 0-313-30260-X, p. 24 ()〕 The name was altered by the composer to reflect the post-War optimism of the "new Elizabethan Age" that began with the accession of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom in February 1952.〔Various authors, (CD notes ) to ''Elizabethan Serenade: The Best of British Light Music'', Naxos 8.553515〕
The piece won Binge an Ivor Novello award and also had chart success in Germany (recorded by the Günther Kallmann Choir) and South Africa. A version with lyrics by poet Christopher Hassall called ''Where the Gentle Avon Flows'' was released and the work also had lyrics added in German, Czech, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Dutch, Danish and French. The piece was used as the signature tune to ''Music In Miniature'' on the BBC Light Programme.〔(Radio Rewind ), Retrieved 19 October 2010.〕
In 1970, a reggae version called "Elizabethan Reggae" by Boris Gardiner & the Love People was released. (This was initially erroneously credited to the track's producer, Byron Lee and the Dragonaires.)〔Mike Carey (Ronald Binge - A Tribute ) at the Robert Farnon Society website.〕
