Brittens Irish Reel was composed in 1936 as title music for a documentary film made by Marion Grierson and Evelyn Spice. Around the Village Green was made for the Travel and Industrial Development Association, which explored the changes to rural life in East Anglia after the increased mechanisation of agriculture. In his incidental music, Britten incorporated a riotous medley of folk songs and other traditional tunes (including Early One Morning, The Vocar of Bray, and Sheilds The Plough Boy), many of which were suggested to him by the Norfolk-based composer E.J.Moeran.
