Back to Holmes' Hornpipe
HOLMES' HORNPIPE. American, Hornpipe. E Flat major (Cole, Ryan): G Major (Miller). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. There was a black-face minstrel named Edwin Holmes who was a popular tenor for about six years, commencing in 1862, says Edward Le Roy Rice (Monarchs of Minstrelsy, New York, 1911). He was with Duprez and Green's and Later Duprez and Benedict's Minstrels, and died in Boston, Mass., July 11, 1879. However, his connection with this tune, if any, is unknown, save the tenuous one of the Boston connection with many of the tunes contained in Ryan's Mammoth Collection.
