'''BRAES OF BUSHBIE [2]'''. AKA - "Braes of Busbie." Scottish, Slow March (4/4 time) or Strathspey. A Dorian (O'Farrell): G Minor (Cole, Hardie): G Dorian (Cranford). Standard tuning (fiddle). ABC (Cole, Hardy): AABBCC (O'Farrell): ABABCCD (Howe): AABBCCD (Cranford). In lowland Scots dialect, a brae is a hillside. Busby is a district in Renfrewshire, Scotland. The melody may have been composed by John Bowie, and  first appears in his '''Collection''' (1789). A note in Nathaniel Gow's '''Sixth Collection''' (1822) says that it was favorite of Niel Gow's, and that it is "Old". Reworked as "Dowd's Favorite," the tune is played as a reel and was famously recorded by Sligo/New York City fiddler Michael Coleman. Piper Willie Clancy had a reel time setting of the tune, called "Braes of Busby," in a major tonality.
