Anon : Roger and Sue. A ballad : Score, part(s) and cover page

Composer: Anon (1746)
Forces: Song
Lyrics: Anon

From "Calliope or English Harmony. A Collection of the most celebrated English and Scots songs", London, 1746. The unfigured bass has been realised editorially.

Many of the songs from this collection were probably composed for the London pleasure gardens, particularly Vauxhall. The comedy in this piece derives from a common device of the period: the mis-match of a vulgar subject described in the demotic married with a high art (Italian opera seria) tune, in this instance 'Apenna amor sen nasce' from Hasse's Cleofide.
