Hard Times Come Again No More (1854)

Words and Music: Stephen Collins Foster (1826-1864)

Hard Times come again no more was a popular song in its day. The song asks the fortunate to remember the poor. In the song we see one of Foster’s favorite images, that of the “pale drooping maiden”. A song set in strophic form, “Hard Times” has four verses - each verse being followed by the chorus. Although repetitious, much interest can be found in the poetry of Foster’s words.

Stephen Collins Foster, the “father of American music”, composed many songs that are etched into the musical memory of every American, as they are heard everywhere. Songs like Oh Susanna, Camptown Races, and My Old Kentucky Home. Foster wrote close to 200 songs, and like Franz Schubert, he also died tragically early, at the age of 37. The purity of his compositional style is unmistakable and legendary indeed.
