RENDEZVOUS, THE (A' Choisir). Scottish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Athole, Fraser): AABB' (Kerr). This tune and "North Hunt (The)"..."form a medley, complimentary to the Northern Meeting, which becomes, in every month of October, the rendezvous of all the beauty and fashion in the north of Scotland" (Fraser).
