One of modernist composer Charles Ives early works, written around the turn of the century but not published until 1949. This piece takes the tune (same as the British National Anthem) through a series of fairly standard but witty variations. It is recommended for listening as example of arrangement in QCA Unit 6 Shanty Time for KS3 and for KS4 pupils, this is one of the first pieces to use bi-tonality.
