Back to Nut (The)
NUT COUNTRY DANCE, THE. English, Scottish; Country Dance Tune (6/8 tme). A Major ('A' part) & E Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. "The Nut" was one of the country dances mentioned by Flett & Flett (1964) as being in the teaching repertoire of a Fife dancing master, Alexander Adamson (1859-1939), whose career the authors documented as an example of a typical period instructor. "Nut Country Dance" was entered into the music copybook of John Neilson, a fiddler living in Cuilhill, Scotland, in 1875. There are tunes written in other hands in the manuscript as well.
