Folk song "I'm Seventeen Come Sunday" performed by the United States Navy Band's Sea Chanters ensemble: this folk song's earliest known origin is around 1838–45.[1] After listening to Fred Atkinson's performance in 1905, Percy Grainger set the tune "for mixed chorus and brass, or strings, or piano, or compromises between all three."[2] This score was published by G. Schirmer in 1912.[3] | ||||||||
