TROUP HOUSE. Scottish, Strathspey (whole time). B Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. "Troup House" was composed by Kirkmichael, Perthshire, fiddler and composer biography:Robert_Petrie (1767-1830) who was employed at Troup House and who dedicated his Second Collection of Strathspey Reels and Country Dances (1796), in which this tune appears, to his patron, Mrs. Garden of Troup[1]. Troup House, Gamrie parish, near the coast in Banffshire, was the estate of Mr. Alexander Troup (c. 1714-1785) and Mrs. Garden of Troup and was constructed for them around 1772 on lands purchased in the 17th century. Alexander was a good businessman, a fair landlord, and an independent politician; he was an M.P. for Aberdeenshire for much of the latter 18th century until his death. He was succeeded at Troup House by the sixth Laird of Troup and Glenlyon, Francis Garden-Campbell (1768-1815).
The family established Gardenstown in 1720 as a fishing port. Troup House was replaced in 1897 by a new structure and is today a school.
- ↑ Petrie's 'Mrs. Garden of Troup' was Penelope (Smythe) Garden-Campbell, who married Francis Garden-Campbell in January, 1791.
