| Description: An attempt to write an air with a 'Music Hall' flavor embodying that London blend of gaiety with wistfulness so familiar in the performances of George Grossmith, Jr. and other vaudeville artists. The 'Gay but wistful' tune consists of two strains, like the 'solo' and 'chorus' of music-hall ditties. |
