ROSE OF SHARON WALTZ. AKA and see "Rosebud of Allenvale (The)." AKA - "Rose of Allendale (The)," "Rose(bud) of Avonmore," "Roses of Ave More." Scottish (originally), American; Waltz (3/4 time). A Major (Phillips): G Major (Silberberg). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Silberberg): AA'B (Phillips). The melody was originally composed by the great Scots fiddler J. Scott Skinner (1843-1927), who titled it "Rosebud of Allenvale (The)." As “Rose of Sharon,” played in the key of ‘A’, it was in the repertoire of Hiram Stamper who helped popularize it. The 'Rose of Sharon' title is a biblical reference--"I am the rose of Sharon, the lily of the valley,--and the name of a flowering plant, the hibiscus.
