LAKELAND PORTRAIT
Composed by Pierre Laplante
Lakeland Portrait is a setting of two Wisconsin folk songs which date from the last half of the nineteenth century. Wisconsin Again was a favorite melody of William N. Allen, who wrote this beautiful tune on his journey from the southern part of the United States back to his home in Wisconsin. The melody to A-Lumbering We Will Go describes the rigorous life and camaraderie among lumberjacks. .
