ROSE IN THE MOUNTAIN. AKA - "Rose of the Mountain," "Rose on the Mountain." American, Reel (cut time). USA, Kentucky. D Major. Standard or ADae tuning (fiddle). AABC. A “crooked” tune from the Salyer Family of Magoffin County, Kentucky. Jeff Titon (2001) is of the opinion the tune might have once been a march, although source John Salyer (1882-1952) played it as a reel/breakdown. Titon finds the first strain of “Rose on the Mountain,” published by Knauff in 1839 (No. 3) is related. There is no musical relationship with Kentucky fiddler J.P. Fraley’s similarly titled “Wild Rose of the Mountain”.
