Back to King Robert the Bruce
KING ROBERT THE BRUCE. AKA - "Bruce's March (2)." Scottish, Marching Air (4/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. Composed by the great Scots fiddler-composer J. Scott Skinner (1843-1927) as a companion piece to his "Sir William Wallace." Robert Bruce, Earl of Carrick (1274-1329), was the Scottish hero who successfully led a second rebellion in 1306, the year Wallace was executed, which eventually led to his being crowned king of an independent Scotland. Skinner printed the march in his Harp and Claymore (1904) collection, calling it "Bruce's March."
