BONNIE DOON. AKA and see "Ye Banks and Braes." Scottish, Jig. G Major (Kerr, Sweet): C Major (Howe). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A waltz setting is in Kerr's Merry Melodies, vol. 1, pg. 25. A favorite air of the first decades of the 19th century, judging by the number of times it appears in period music manuscripts in Britain and North America. Under the "Bonny/Bonnie Doon" title it was published in Philadelphia in 1823 in G.E. Blake's Gentleman's Amusement No. 2. The title is from poet Robert Burns' song "Ye banks and braes o' bonny doon," printed in Johnson's Scots Musical Museum, although John Glen finds the precursor melody to be "The Caledonian Hunt's Delight", printed by the Gows in 1788.
Printed sources: Howe (Complete Preceptor for the Accordeon), 1843; p. 8. Kerr (Merry Melodies), vol. 4; No. 259, p. 28. Sweet (Fifer's Delight), 1964; p. 25.
