As children, many of us learn to sing, "If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands." Few of us realize that what we're singing is actually part of a pervasive - and centuries old - musical scheme known as the 'Sweet Thing' scheme. This book studies one of the most productive and enduring shared musical resources in North American vernacular music. Black paper boards, gilt title to spine. ISBN: 9780190881979. A lovely copy. Pictorial dustwrapper is lightly scuffed to rear panel.
