'''SET AMÉRICAIN "CÂLLÉ" 2ÈME PARTE.'''  French-Canadian, Jig (6/8 time).  A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB.  The melody was recorded (and probably composed) by Montreal accordionist Alfred Montmarquette (1871-1944), who recorded prolifically in the 78 RPM era.  Heard on the recording is  Montmarquette's steady accordion backed by an accompanist who is listed as playing the 'castagnettes' on the record company log, but who probably was playing wooden 'bones' (slats). Also featured on the recording is a ''câllé''--a dance caller, who was, for this recording, Ovila Légaré. 
According to editor Jean-Pierre Joyal (1994), the piece was recorded in the key of A Major due to the limitations of Montmarquette's instrument, a diatonic button accordion, though most fiddlers play it in D Major, an easier key on that instrument. The first part (premiere partie) of accordion player Thédore Duguay's recording of "Set Americain" can be found under the title "Le Caledonia."
