SNOWFLAKE REEL. AKA - "Snowflake Breakdown." Canadian, American, Bluegrass; Breakdown and Reel (irregular measures in both parts). USA; New England, northern New York, Missouri. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddld). AABB (Phillips): AABB' (Bohrer/Kibler). Composed in 1959 by Canadian fiddler Wally Edward Traugott (sometimes Trougott, 1934-2010), this reel also has had currency with American fiddlers, particularly along the Canadian border and in the Mid-West (Missouri). The B Flat chord in the accompaniment to the second strain is often the bane of unwary guitarists! Trougott, originally from Kitchener, Ontario, recorded in Canada in the 1950's and 1960's and played with Tommy Hunter, but became disillusioned with the recording industry there. He relocated to the United States in the late 1960's and worked for Capitol Records' Capitol Mastering Subsidiary for twenty-five years, mastering recordings for a variety of artists (including the Beastie Boys, John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band, Paul McCartney's "Band on the Run" and George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass").
