Question: when was the song that Hail, Pennsylvania was written to the tune of first performed?
Context: "Hail, Pennsylvania!"  is a song written by Edgar M. Dilley (Class of 1897) as a submission to a University of Pennsylvania alumni committee-sponsored contest to write a song to the tune of "God Save the Tsar! ", the national anthem of Imperial Russia, by Alexei Fyodorovich Lvov.  Edgar Dilley was awarded $25. Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here is an American popular song first published in 1917.  The lyrics were written by D. A. Esrom (pseudonym of Theodora Morse) partly to a tune originally written by Arthur Sullivan for the 1879 comic opera "The Pirates of Penzance".  The tune is part of "With Cat-Like Tread" from Act II of "Pirates of Penzance" and was arranged by Morse from Sullivan's original. Aise (Greek: Αϊσέ , Turkish: "Ayşe" ),Turkish: "Atımı Bağladım Ben Bir Ormana" , is an instrumental dance tune common throughout the eastern Mediterranean.  Sections of its melody are found as part of “Selanik”(“Thessalonikê”), a tune from Macedonia; in apiece by the Ottoman Armenian composer Tatyos Efendi; and in the song, “Love’s Like a Pin,”from Asia Minor and Propontis (for a recording, see Songs and Tunes of Thrace, CUP CD 7-8, 1:3).  What was probably the first recording has also been identified: a 78 made in Cairo in 1910 under the title, “Bulbul Al-Afrah” (“The Happy Nightingale”), with the Jewish musician Ibrahim Sahalun ’s Takht on violin.In Lesvos, the tune is called “Aisé” (a Turkish female name).  It may have had lyrics at some point in the past and was most commonly performed in the west of the island.  The tune is characteristic of the petachtos karsilamas, a term that refers to an entire category of dance performed to tunes with a very rapid time signature (although today,thanks to the choreographic intervention of the dance association, it is presented as a “chair dance”).  This type of karsilamas is also called aïdinikos (see the section ondance), and the rhythm has nine beats (2+2+2+3). There are similar folkloric tunes known as "Gel Gel Aman". Salve Regina ("Hail Holy Queen", literally: Hail, Queen) is a composition for organ by Olivier Latry, a meditation of the Latin hymn "Salve Regina".  Each of the seven movements reflects one line of the hymn which can optionally be sung in chant before the related movement.  The work was first performed on 9 October 2007 by the composer at Notre Dame in Paris, recorded there and published by . "Little Queenie" is a song written and recorded by Chuck Berry.  It appeared on the 1959 album "Chuck Berry Is on Top" and was released as a double A-side with "Almost Grown".  Berry performed the song in the movies "Go, Johnny Go! " (1959) and "Hail!  Hail!  Rock 'n' Roll" (1987).  It has been covered by many artists, including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and REO Speedwagon.  One year earlier Berry had released "Run Rudolph Run", a Christmas song with the same melody. "God Save the Tsar!"  (Russian: Боже, Царя храни!  ; transliteration: Bozhe, Tsarya khrani!)  was the national anthem of the Russian Empire.  The song was chosen from a competition held in 1833 and was first performed on 18 December 1833.  The composer was violinist Alexei Lvov, and the lyrics were by the court poet Vasily Zhukovsky.  It was the anthem until the Russian Revolution of 1917, after which "Worker's Marseillaise" was adopted as the new national anthem until the overthrow of the Russian Provisional Government. "The Roast Beef of Old England" is an English patriotic ballad.  It was written by Henry Fielding for his play "The Grub-Street Opera", which was first performed in 1731.  The lyrics were added to over the next twenty years.  The song increased in popularity when given a new setting by the composer Richard Leveridge, and it became customary for theatre audiences to sing it before, after, and occasionally during, any new play.  The Royal Navy always goes in to dine at Mess Dinners to the tune, which is also played at United States Marine Corps formal mess dinners during the presentation of the beef.  Officers of the Royal Artillery are also played in to dinner by this tune. The Pitt Victory Song, one of the most popular and widely used fight songs of the University of Pittsburgh, is often played in conjunction with "Hail to Pitt" and the "Panther Song".  It was originally written by former to students of the university in order to solve the issue of the university not owning the copyright to "Hail to Pitt" which prevented the school from granting permission for its use during football radio broadcasts.  Lyrics were written by G. Norman Reis (Col. 1916) and Louis M. Fushan (Econ.  1923).  Music was written by Benjamin Levant (Col. 1919, Med.  1921).  The song debuted in the Cap and Gown Club's 1938 musical production entitled "Pickets, Please!"  Although commonly performed at university events, few people today know the rarely heard first portion of the song that occurs before the chorus.  However, the most common cheer that is used during Pitt-related events and athletic contests is "Let's go Pitt!" , which while perhaps derived from the song's lyrics, is often cheered even in absence of the song or music. Salve Regina ("Hail Holy Queen", literally: Hail, Queen) is a Marian anthem, a setting by Arvo Pärt of the Latin hymn "Salve Regina" for mixed choir and organ in 2001.  It was first performed in Essen Cathedral on 22 May 2002.  It was published by Universal Edition in 2002.  Pärt arranged the composition for choir, celesta and string orchestra in 2011 for a celebration of 150 years of Italian unity. Prosper-Didier Deshayes (mid 18th century – 1815) was an opera composer and dancer who lived and worked in France.  In 1764 he was a balletmaster at the Comédie-Française.  By 1774 he had become an assistant ("adjoint") at the Paris Opéra.  His first opera "Le Faux serment ou La Matrone de Gonesse", a "comédie mêlée d'ariettes" in two acts, was first performed on 31 December 1785 at the Théâtre des Beaujolais in Paris and became a popular success.  He went on to have another 18 works performed at various venues in Paris, but only two, "La faut serment" and "Zélie, ou Le mari à deux femmes", a 3-act "drame" first performed at the Salle Louvois on 29 October 1791, were ever published as musical scores.  He also participated in the collaborative Revolutionary opera "Le congrès des rois", a 3-act "comédie mêlée d'ariettes", which combined music written by Deshayes and 11 other composers and was first performed by the Opéra-Comique at the Salle Favart on 26 February 1794.  He died in Paris.
