Analysis. — These words were not sung but were spoken between 

 the repetitions of the song. The drum was struck only once in a 

 measure and always followed the voice. 



The long notes were sometimes held an extra count. This is 

 unusual, as the long notes are usually found more uniform than the 

 short notes in the repetitions. 



The record is not entirely clear, but it is evident that the first part 

 is major and the last part minor in tonality. The B fiat is always 

 taken firmly and accurately, the first E flat being slightly too high 

 and the second one on true pitch. It is interesting to note that the 

 change from major to minor is made on B flat instead of E flat.
