I remember some years ago seeing a collection of 100 different
recordings/arrangements of Gershwin's 'Summertime' that had been done
by a variety of folks since its composition.

Thomas Crecquillon wrote "Ung Gay Bergier" (A Happy Shepherd?) in
the first
half of the 16th century. It became one of the greatest hits of the
next few
decades inspiring nearly three dozen known versions for keyboard and
lute.
For instance, Simone Molinaro published an elaborated intabulation
for lute
more than 50 years later.
By analogy, in the 21st century, what is today's equivalent of "Ung
Gay
Bergier," i.e. a piece of music decades old that is a favorite for
recasting
in new arrangements?
