GRAND PARADE [1], THE. AKA and see "Moon and Seven Stars (The)," "even Stars (The)," "True Briton (The)." English, Country Dance Tune (6/8 time). England, Yorkshire. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The title may indicate the tune was used for a 'march around' or 'grand march' type dance, such as was common at the beginning of country dances. Perhaps it is also an allusion to the 'grand parade' of the heavens. However, the "Grand Parade" title for this particular tune appears to have been a mistake in copying, for "Grand Parade (3) (The)" is the title of the jig directly underneath "Moon and Seven Stars (The)" on page four of Glasgow publisher James Aird's Selection of Scotch, English, Irish and Foreign Airs, vol. 1 (1782).
