Misc. Comments
- See Wikipedia article for information on the dance itself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_de_Coverley.
- Grove Music treats all three versions as equal, and does not say which was the "original".
- Wikipedia's list of Bridge's composition (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_compositions_by_Frank_Bridge) lists the string quartet as the "original".
- Stainer & Bell's catalogue numbers are HL34 for the string orchestra version, and HL34A for the full orchestra version.
