While compiling The Cape Breton Highland
Collection I reviewed some pipe tunes which have
already be given in earlier volumes of The
Cape Breton Musical Heritage
Series.
Although not verbatum,
the setting above reflects the four turns given in most
pipe books. Note however that in the pipe music the 2nd
last note of the 7th bar in each part is an f# instead of
the given 4th finger e note. I've yet to hear a fiddler
play it that way.
The more widespread,
two-turn Cape Breton fiddle setting is given in
Brenda
Stubbert, The 2nd
Collection.
