MONROE'S HORNPIPE. Bluegrass, Breakdown. USA, Kentucky. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composed by mandolinist Bill Monroe, the "Father of Bluegrass."

Some see resemblance to the old-time tune "Big Eyed Rabbit (2)." It was also a favorite contest tune for noted Northwest fiddler Joe Pancerzewski.
