Misc. Comments

According to Grove Music, this is a song collection that is "a collection of fictional letters portraying imaginary scenes in the lives of known contemporary drunkards and loose women". Bellman was a gifted poet who took most of the melodies from other sources, though he may have composed a few himself. Grove doesn't mention what the original accompaniment was in the 1791 publication, but some of the melodies are from Swedish dance books where the music is transcribed for 2 violins.
