Back to Elk's Festival (The)
ELK'S FESTIVAL, THE. AKA - "Elk's Hornpipe." Scottish?, English (?); Hornpipe or Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A latter 19th century hornpipe of uncertain provenance, perhaps Scottish. "Can be used as a Clog," states Ryan's Mammoth Collection. A version of this tune appears in Bayard's 1981 collection as "Tune Used in the Lancers" (Appendix, No. 5, p. 574) collected from a fiddler reared on Prince Edward Island. Don Meade notes the two parts of the tune are frequently found as the last parts of "Derry Hornpipe (The)." Other tunes that resemble it in whole or part are "Texas Quickstep (2)" (Jarman) and "Little Black Moustache (1)" ('A' part only).
