This curious string quartet is based on Mildred Hill's original (public domain) children's song "Good morning to all". It has been used during the 20th century as the most famous of birthday songs "Happy birthday to you" and has been copyrighted in that guise, but the original tune by Mildred Hill, which I have used, is in the public domain. This is a somewhat sardonic arrangement and stretches the harmonies rather exactingly, but the tune remains recognisable throughout.
The sound sample is an electronic preview.
