HARLEQUIN REEL. Scottish, Reel (cut time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody is contained in the Drummond Castle Manuscript, Part 2 (1734, No. 37), inscribed "A Collection of the best Highland Reels written by David Young, W.M. & Accomptant." The MS. is sometimes called the "Duke of Perth Manuscript" because of Young's dedication. An identical version of "Harlequin's Reel" was also entered into Young's MacFarlane Manuscript Part 2 (c. 1741, No. 193, p. 237[1]), compiled for his patron at the time, Walter MacFarlane of MacFarlane.

wikipedia:Harlequin was one of the principal stock characters of Italian Commedia dell'arte, often a facile and witty gentleman's valet and a capricious swain of the serving maid. A whole theater genre, the Harlequinade, developed around the character in England in the early 18th century.
