General Information

Title: A Beauteous fair has pierced my heart
Composer: John Wall Callcott

Number of voices: 3vv   Voicing: 3 equal voices

Genre: SecularPartsong

Language: English
Instruments: A cappella originally, piano accompaniment added by William Horsley (1774-1858)

{{Published}} is obsolete (code commented out), replaced with {{Pub}} for works and {{PubDatePlace}} for publications.

Description: A catch for three voices. There are two editions from 2 distinct sources. The edition which appeared in Horsley's collection was "bowdlerised" to remove the lewdness of the original. It also required the initial 8 bars of each part to be sung 3 times, rather than once only as in the original version. For the obsolete meaning of the verb "roger" see the wikipedia entry for that word.
