DOCTOR WILLIAM GRANT. AKA - "Seann Triubhais Uilleachain." AKA and see "Shaun Truish Willighan/Willichan," "Sean Trews (1)." Scottish, Reel (cut time). D Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCCDD. Glen (1891) finds the earliest printing of the tune in Angus Cumming's A Collection of Strathspey or Old Highland Reels (1782, No. 29, p. 9). The reel appears as "Dr. William Grant's Reell" with the Gaelic title "Seann Triubhais Uilleachain " (Willie's old trousers) in Angus Cumming's collection of 1782. Cumming (c. 1750-c. 1800) was from a long line of Speyside musicians. However, as William Lamb[1] points out, the word strathspey only appears in the title of his collection, and not with any of the tunes themselves; "the tunes were simply all 'Old Highland reels' to him." The boundary between what we think of as reels versus the syncopated strathspey was much more permeable to Cumming.
