VIEUX CHAMPION, LE. AKA and see "Reel de Rimouski." French-Canadian, Reel (cut time). G Major ('A' part), C Major ('B' part) and F Major ('C' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC. The tune reel recorded in 1928 by fiddler biography:Fortunat Malouin as "Le Rimouski", better known nowadays as "Reel de Rimouski." Researcher Jean Duval suggests Boucher's title may be a nod to Malouin, who at age 60 won first prize in the 1926 regional Quebec fiddlers' competition. Duval also notes the similarity of the first strain of Boucher's "Vieux Champion" with the first strain of "Galway Hornpipe."
