This is part VI of Lincolnshire Posy by Percy Grainger and is a favorite among wind ensembles. As its title suggests, Lost Lady Found is a joyful and upbeat piece.
Didn't know of this Grainger piece- thanks! He also wrote the tune to Danny Boy, known as Londonderry Air, and a children's tune called Over the Hills & far away, both of which most of us have heard.
I've enjoyed this musical piece elsewhere. I never seem to know the titles of the pieces or the composers. But I can usually hum along, LOL. Good thing I have you to enlighten me with both!
"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
