BRAES OF GLENDOCHART/GLENDOCHERT. AKA and see "Catch Club Scotch Reel," "Joe Tanzy's Reel," "Mr./Miss/Mrs. Minzies/Menzies of Culdares," "Mr. Menzies of Culdares," "Paddy Murphy’s Wife (1)," "Pat Carney's Reel." Scottish, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The tune was likely composed by Alexander McGlashan, in whose publication it first appears (Third Collection, 1786), however, it was retitled "Mr. Menzies of Culdares Reel" and attributed to Niel Gow in that composer's First Collection (2nd ed.), 1801, some years after McGlashan died.

"The Dochart, a river and glen, is in Perthshire near Crianlarich. It is the burying ground for the Macnabs, and has been called "the Macnab country"... "It now is included in the Breadalbane territory, the clan having emigrated to Canada in the first two decades of the present century" (Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland, 1883).

The identical reel, down to the mistake in McGlashan's last measure, was printed in Boston by music publisher Elias Howe under the title "Catch Club Scotch Reel."
