LESLIE. Scottish, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The tune, as "Miss Leslie of St. Andrews", appears in Donald Grant's A collection of strathspeys, reels, jigs, etc. for the pianoforte, violin and violoncello, published around 1812. A note with the melody gives: "An old air". He was originally from the Moray/Inverness-shire region, ancestral home of the Grants. It was older, for it appears in Neil Stewart's collection (c. 1761), also as "Miss Annie Livingston."
