In the Hills of Old Kentucky, sub-titled
My Mountain Rose, is a pleasant period parlour song with a nice patriotic chorus extolling Kentucky's mountain virtues in keeping with the idyllic scene depicted on the original sheet music. This is easy stuff which beginners will enjoy as, for the greater part, all recorder voices share the melody.
