Music of Somerset : ウィキペディア英語版 | Music of Somerset Somerset is a county in the southwest of England. It is home to many types of music. ==Folk music==
The county has a well-documented and still vibrant folk music heritage, as it was studied by one of the earliest British musicologists, Cecil Sharp, who cut his teeth on the rich vein of folk music tradition in Somerset. Sharp began his career of collecting folk songs in Somerset in 1903 with the editorial help of his friend Rev Charles Marson, vicar of Hambridge. Cycling around the county during holidays, Sharp ultimately collected more than 1,500 songs from Somerset. The folksinging tradition in Somerset centers on solo, a cappella singing and playing—at home, at work, and at gatherings, small or large.〔Songs of Somerset Folk, Traditional Songs from the Sharp Archives performed by Eddie Upton, Folk South West, 1998. Halsgrove, Tiverton, Devon. Audio CD, ISBN 1-84114-011-2, ISBN 978-1-84114-011-7〕 Sharp's five volume collection of Somerset folk songs formed the basis for his ''English Folk Song: Some Conclusions'', a seminal 1907 publication. Some of Sharp's collections formed the basis for ''Songs of the West'' (with Sabine Baring-Gould) and ''Somerset Rhapsody'' by Gustav Holst and the "March from Somerset" in Vaughan Williams' ''English Folk Song Suite''.
