YOU AND I. Canadian, Reel (whole time). Canada; Cape Breton, New Brunswick. G Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Identified as a “French” reel by editor Paul Cranford, who states the traditional tune was popularized in Cape Breton by fiddler Angus Chisholm, and is now played throughout the island. Some fiddlers, notes Cranford, tend to sharpen some of the ‘f’ notes and flatten some of the ‘b’ notes in the tune. Peter Corfield describes it as a traditional Acadian reel.
