TURK’S MARCH [3]. AKA – "Turkish March," “Turkish March in the Battle of Prague.” AKA and see "Quick Step from the Battle of Prague." English, March (4/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The melody has been used for the song “Billy Bones.” The melody was included in the music manuscript collections of H.S.J. Jackson (Wyresdale, Lancashire, 1823), John Buttery (English army, turn of the 19th century), It appears in print in Bland’s New and Compleat Instructions for the Clarionet (London, 1798), John Preston’s Entire New and Compleat Instructions for the Fife (London, 1796), Preston & Son’s Complete Instructions for the Bassoon (London, 1790), Wilson’s Pocket Preceptor for the Fife (London, 1805), Andrew’s Complete Instructions for the Fife (London, 1808).
“Turk’s March [3]” was extremely popular with American musicians as well, and it can be found in the commonplace books of Jeremiah Brown (Seabrook, N.H., 1782), John Beach (Gloucester, Mass., 1801), John W. Stiles (1807), a copybook entitled Selection of Music as Performed by the Pierian Sodality (Cambridge, Mass., 1810), and Eben Irving’s music copybook of 1796 (Middletown, N.Y.). Printed versions are even more numerous: it appears in Bacon’s Complete Preceptor for the Clarinet (Philadelphia, 1818) and Joshua Cushing’s Fifer’s Companion No. 1 (Salem, Mass., 1805), James Hulbert’s Complete Fifer’s Museum (Greenfield, Mass., c. 1811), Joseph Herrick’s Instrumental Preceptor (Exeter, N.H., 1807), Norris & Sawyer’s Village Fifer (Exeter, N.H., 1808), and Klemm’s New & Complete Preceptor for the Clarinet (Philadelphia, Pa., 1825), and several other similar publications.
