"Girl with the Blue Dress on", also known as "Babes in the Woods", "Din Tarrant's", "Pat McNicholas' Polka" and "Tony Lowe's Polka" is an English polka and/or morris dance Tune in 2/4 time and G Major. It also occurs at Irish ceilis and American contra dances. The melody is also used for a polka step in the North-West morris dance tradition of England. Rather than being a traditional tune, "Girl with the Blue Dress on" is an adaptation of "Kitty Schottische", a light classical composition by Charles Louis Napoléon d'Albert (1808-1886) who was born in Hamburg to a captain of cavalry in the French army; on his father's death in 1816 mother and son emigrated to England. d'Albert was a composer of ballet music and a dancing master and worked in London, Newcastle and Glasgow.
