SUNDERLAND LASSES. English, (3/4 time). England, Northumberland/County Durham. G Major (Bruce & Stokoe): A Major (Cocks, Vickers). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC. The melody appears in the 1770 music manuscript (p. 28) of Northumbrian musician William Vickers, about whom, unfortunately, little is known. Vickers noted the tune in 6/8 time but it scans better in ¾ time, as it is set, for example, in the James Biggins music manuscript (Leeds, 1779). "Sunderland Lasses" is similar in contour and melodic material to “Lads of Alnwick (The)”; Vickers researcher Matt Seattle remarks the structure is identical, and some melodic material shared, "though it never coincides exactly"[1].
