Back to Bacca Pipes (1)

BACCA PIPES [1] (GREENSLEEVES). AKA – "Pipe Dance." AKA and see "Greensleeves (1)." English, Morris Dance. A Dorian (Bacon {Bampton, Hinton}, Karpeles, Raven). Standard tuning. AAB (Bacon {Hinton}): AABB (Karpeles, Raven): ABA'B'ABAB(Bacon {Headington}). From the Bampton and Headington areas of England's Cotswolds. 'Bacca' pipes refers to the long-stemmed clay tobacco pipes (sometimes called 'churchwarden' pipes), which were crossed and placed on the ground (in the manner of some sword dances) whilst a solo jig was danced between them. Although not related to the tune it is interesting to note that the term 'bacca-pipes' in lower class English slang of the early 19th century referred to whiskers curled in small close ringlets. See related "Bacca Pipes (2)" from Bacon {Ascot-Under-Wychwood}.
