MISS CORBETT('S REEL). AKA and see "New Demense (1) (The)." Irish, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Aird, Cole, O’Neill, Ryan): AAB (Kennedy). This 'double-tonic' tune is a variant of the “College Grove (The)” family of tunes, of which there are several excellent Irish cognates. O’Neill prints the tune in his Waifs and Strays (1922) and gives his source as Aird's Selections.
