CUMBERLAND WALTZ. English, Waltz. D major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The county of Cumberland is first mentioned in the 10th century and is derived from the name of its inhabitants: the ancient Celtic people called the Brittons who were driven into the hills of the West of England by the Anglo-Saxon invaders-they took to calling themselves the Cymry, or brotherhood, in their time of desperation. There appears to be several "Cumberland Waltzes." One appears in Gilfert's Gentleman's Pocket Companion for the German Flute or Violin (1802), and a different one was set by Johann Strauss in a medley of nine waltzes called "The Coronation Waltz," and there is a "Cumberland Waltz" by T. Latour, a London-based composer of primarily incidental works (composed prior to 1824). There are American "Cumberland Waltzes" as well, named for the Appalachian region.
