Just caught Fantasia on Greensleeves on the Radio and now it is a lineup of 4 Playford pieces, starting with Greensleeves:) Must be later Playford, since Over the Hills is not that early (mid 1700s? 1st version). Nice instrumental version - wonder what the dance (if there is one) is like?

Playford: 4 Playford Dances; Greensleeeves; Italian Rant; Over the Hills and Far away; Blackheath - Lautten Compagny Berlin Classics 0017842 2 5'33

Edit: ( The tune appeared in Playford's Dancing Master (1714) (cause there are a bunch of lyrics under there) )
