'''BELCHER'S REEL'''. AKA and see &quot;Wake Up Susan [1].&quot; Old-Time, Reel. USA, Catskill Region, New York. A Major. AEae tuning (fiddle). AB. Alva Belcher (1819-1900) was a black fiddler and storekeeper from Delhi, New York, who had a regional reputation in the nineteenth century. The tune named for him (it is actually an unusual setting of &quot;Mason's Apron&quot;), and presumably written by him, was a common dance tune in the Greene County, N.Y. area in the early 20th century. Bronner (1987) says: &quot;At a time when local musicians rarely gained wide reknown, Belcher was a name called for in villages from the Catskills well into central New York. Belcher formed a string band that included white players, and his style incorporated the Anglo-Celtic influence on the area. Indeed...Belcher's tunes and phrasings passed into the oral tradition beyond the county's borders&quot; (pg. 16).
