East of the Sun (and West of the Moon)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"East of the Sun (and West of the Moon)" is a popular song written by Brooks Bowman, an undergraduate member of Princeton University's Class of 1936, for the 1934 production of the Princeton Triangle Club's production of Stags at Bay.[1] It was published in 1934 by Santly Bros. and soon became a hallmark of the Princeton Tigertones,[2] Princeton University's signature all-male a cappella group. The Princeton Triangle Club performs the number every year at its annual Frosh Week show. The standard is also sung by the Princeton Nassoons.
