Composed by arr. Linda Fox. Arranged by Linda Fox. This edition: pdf. Baroque, Broadway, Classical, Historic, Musical/Show, Opera. Score. 4 pages. Linda Fox Fairbairns #1454843. Published by Linda Fox Fairbairns (A0.1896398).

This is the vocal score of Mrs Peachum's third song from John Gay's Beggar's Opera 1727, also published with chamber orchestra accompaniment.

Mrs Peachum’s furious entrance comes in a lively new arrangement. Based on the popular tune “O London is a fine town,” this setting captures the satirical bite and theatrical energy of John Gay’s original while remaining practical for modern performance.

The arrangement draws on early 18th‑century tonal language, balancing emerging major/minor harmony with modal colour and expressive cross-relations. Clear sectional rehearsal marks (A–D) and idiomatic vocal writing make it suitable for staged or concert performance.

Full score with parts also published.
The entire Beggar's Opera score is in preparation.
