Thanks, Leslie. Again, on the youtube itself there are “credits” – but in this case it’s based on an old English traditional tune, first a hornpipe (“Star of the County Down, in 3/4 originally), then as “Dives & Lazarus” (which Vaughan Williams elaborated on in Five Variants), and also in liturgical hymnals, as “Canticle of the Turning.” Same basic progression, though varied applications and approach.
Very nice Andy. Why is it called (Canticle) and who was the composer?

I thought there was a tradition sound to it. Thanks Andy, I really enjoyed it.

Yes. There’s a distinctive flair, like Old English. It might be interesting to explore those titles, in their various manifestations. Thanks again —
