Back to Goose's Minuet (The)
GOOSES MINUET, THE. English, Minuet (3/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB.
Source for notated version: Ship's fiddler William Litten, who sailed with the British East India Fleet on their voyage to the Orient in the first years of the 19th century. Unfortunately, next to nothing is known of Litten, but his music manuscript copybook came into the possession of seafarer Allen Coffin (b. 1788), a native of the island of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. Coffin brought the book home with him when he returned to the island after his own travels, in the early 19th century [Huntington].
Printed sources: Huntington (William Linten's), 1977; p. 35.
