GIGUE DU FORGERON (Blacksmith's Dance). AKA and see "Reel du Forgeron." French-Canadian, Jig (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Recorded by Québec fiddler Joseph Allard [1] [2] in 1937. See also the closely related "Doc Boyd's Jig," a 1933 composition by Ontario fiddler John Burt, of which "Gigue du Forgeron" may be a derivative. A gigue in Québec is a stepdance, and the name attached to a tune simply means a vehicle for stepdancing, no matter what the meter.
