Back to Clodun Reel

CLODUN REEL. AKA and see "Ploughman's Reel." Scottish, Reel (cut time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. 'Clodun' is perhaps a version of the name 'Culloden', the site of the battle between the Highland forces of Bonnie Prince Charlie and those of the British Crown, fought on Drummossie Moor overlooking Inverness, 1746. John Glen (1891) finds the tune earliest in print in Robert Bremner's 1757 collection (p. 19). It was entered into the 1770 music manuscript collection of Northumrian musician William Vickers as "Ploughman's Reel."
