HOOP HER AND GIRD HER [1]. Scottish, English; Jig. England, Northumberland. G Mixolydian (Gow): G Major (Bruce & Stokoe). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. "Hoop Her and Gird Her" refers to the process of barrel-making, as in "hoopers and girders"-to gird meant to encircle and fasten with a band, as a barrel-hoop. The title could have a double-entendre or some other meaning, however. For example, it may refer in some way to dancing, or to the fashion of hoop skirts for women. The melody also appears in William Vicker's c. 1770 Northumbrian collection and in the music manuscript collection of Cumbrian musician John Rook (1840).
