THREE HILL SONGS

Michael Dewar Head was born in Eastbourne on January 28th 1900.

He achieved a fine reputation as the composer of almost a hundred songs, beautifully written and often designed for himself to sing to his own accompaniment.He travelled extensively as an adjudicator and examiner, and it was while he was on an examining tour in South Africa that he died of peritonitis at Capetown on August 24th 1976._x005F_x000D_

Three Hill Songs were written in 1976 and are playable by an oboist of moderate ability. Th
