Later, for the middle movement I selected the hauntingly beautiful 'Un Canadien Errant,' a lament associated with those exiles after the 1837 Rebellion in Lower Canada. Following the call that reunites the performers, 'Donkey Riding,' a traditional work song sung by the loggers of both new Brunswick and Quebec, is introduced. The 'donkey' here is not a stubborn, four-legged mammal but a small steam engine, invented in 1881 for hauling timber. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eContents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI.
