Where The Gentle Avon Flows
“Where The Gentle Avon Flows” (Elizabethan Serenade) is a song composed by Ronald Binge with lyrics by Christopher Hassall.
Elizabethan Serenade is a light music composition by Ronald Binge. When it was first played in a 1951 radio broadcast by the Mantovani orchestra, it was titled “Andante Cantabile”, although the original orchestral manuscript parts in Ronald Binge’s own hand show the title “The Man in the Street”. The name was altered by the composer to reflect the post-war optimism of a “new Elizabethan Age” that began with the accession of Queen Elizabeth II in February 1952.
A version with lyrics by poet Christopher Hassall called “Where the Gentle Avon Flows” was released, and the work also had lyrics added in German, Czech, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Dutch, Danish and French.
Performance Length: 3’11”.
Purchase includes: Mp3 Audio Track
