Composed by Traditional 17th century Irish tune. Arranged by Scott S. Stewart. This edition: audio, pdf. A Cappella, Celtic, Folk, Irish, Traditional. 8 pages. Scott S. Stewart #1213902. Published by Scott S. Stewart (A0.1646982).

Corporal Casey(The Irish Washerwoman) came about when words were in search of a melody. Playwright Samuel Arnold was looking for an existing melody to use for the song “Corporal Casey” in his play ‘The Surrender of Calais’ (1791). He decided to use the popular tune the ‘Irish Washerwoman’ a jig (a lively folk dance that evolved from the 17th tune ‘Dargason’ tune). Thus, there are no original words to “The Irish Washerwoman" but she lends herself well to other aspirations. In the play, “Corporal Casey” is sung by the Irish soldier O’Carrol who sings of a soldier gone to battle yet yearning his sweet lass Shelah. This arrangement is for 4-part SATB ensemble, with a baritone solo, to be performed a cappella. Performance time: 1:40+-. A great tune for St. Patrick’s Day or any Irish or Bluegrass festival.
