'''COLONEL DAVID STEWART OF GARTH'S REEL'''. AKA and see "[[General Stewart of Garth]]," "[[This is no my ain House]]." Scottish, Reel. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Composed by renowned Dunkeld, Perthshire, fiddler-composer Niel Gow (1727-1807). The tune appears twice in Gow's publications; in the '''Sixth Collection''' (1822), and, under the original title, in the '''First Collection''' (1784). John Glen (1895) sees it as simply a transformation of the older Scots tune "[[This is no my ain House]]." The melody has also been described as a set of "[[De'il Stick the Minister]]/[[De'il Stick da Minister]]." Colonel David Stewart of Garth (1772-1829) was a career army officer, who late in life wrote an account of Highlanders and Highland customs that did much to romanticize the militant nature of the Highlanders (for more on whom see "[[Lieutenant Colonel David Stewart's Strathspey]]" and "[[David Stewart]]"). Stewart composed as well; at least one tune of his made it to the Gow collections, "[[Original Gallic Air (An)]]." See also Cape Breton versions under the title "[[General Stewart of Garth]]."
