'''LONDON MARCH.''' AKA - "[[Berkshire March (The)]]," "[[Lord Loudon's March]]." English, March (4/4 time). England; Lincolnshire, Yorkshire. G Major (Merryweather & Seattle): D Major (Aird, Gibbons/Sumner, Manson). Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Merryweather & Seattle): AABB (Manson, Sumner). The first part of the tune, with a different second strain, is "[[Favorite Scotch Hornpipe]]/[[Scotch Hornpipe (1)]]" and "[[March of the Third Regiment of Guards]]" (also printed by James Aird). As "The London or Berkshire March" it was issued (on a single sheet?) by Edinburgh publisher Neil Stewart in 1795. However, the melody appears to have originated with Scottish musician, composer and publisher Robert Bremner (an expatriate who set up business in London) who published it in 1761 as "[[Lord Loudon's March]]."

LONDON MARCH. AKA - "Berkshire March (The)," "Lord Loudon's March." English, March (4/4 time). England; Lincolnshire, Yorkshire. G Major (Merryweather & Seattle): D Major (Aird, Gibbons/Sumner, Manson). Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Merryweather & Seattle): AABB (Manson, Sumner). The first part of the tune, with a different second strain, is "Favorite Scotch Hornpipe/Scotch Hornpipe (1)" and "March of the Third Regiment of Guards" (also printed by James Aird). As "The London or Berkshire March" it was issued (on a single sheet?) by Edinburgh publisher Neil Stewart in 1795. However, the melody appears to have originated with Scottish musician, composer and publisher Robert Bremner (an expatriate who set up business in London) who published it in 1761 as "Lord Loudon's March."
