MISS MARY GARDEN OF TROUP'S REEL. Scottish, Jig (6/8 time). E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. "Miss Mary Garden of Troup's Reel" was composed by Edinburgh fiddler-composer biography:Robert Mackintosh (c. 1745-1808) and printed in his Fourth Collection of New Strathspey Reels (c. 1804). Despite the word 'reel' in the title, the tune is in jig (6/8) time, with the word 'reel' in this case referring to a intertwining ('reeling') dance movement.
The Garden family genealogy is a complicated one due to the frequent use of 'Francis', 'Alexander' and 'Archibald' as given names to generations of members.
