BANJO QUADRILLES No. 4, THE. American, Irish; Quadrille part (6/8 time). Standard tuning (fiddle). ABACA. See note for "Banjo Quadrilles: No.1" for Conor Ward's history of this quadrille set, fashioned from popular blackface minstrel tunes into a popular dance set. Regarding "Banjo Quadrilles No. 4", Conor writes:
The fourth quadrille has the surname “Emmit” as preface. With the “D. C.” at the end, the “Fine” and its symbol at the end of the first part, Levey’s structure here is ABCA but likely should be ABACA. Kiernan’s version brings the first part down an octave. None of the three parts have been identified but are likely excerpts of popular American folk music from that period in the 1840s and were perhaps composed by the members of this troupe.
