Back to Miss Verie Hay
MISS VEARIE HAY. AKA - "Miss Vere Hay." Scottish, Reel. B Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. Composed by Daniel Dow and first appearing in print in his c. 1775 collection (p. 8). Dow was an Edinburgh composer and music teacher who lived from 1732 to 1783, perhaps most famous for his tune “Money Musk.” Dow’s collection of Scots tunes was called Thirty-seven new reels and strathspeys (1775) and appears to be the first collection to include the word "strathspey" in its title. His family is known to have stayed in Strathardle and his son (John Dow) was born at Kirkmichael. Dow, whose first name has been given as Daniel or Donald (both acceptable translations for the Gaelic ‘Domhnull’) was buried in the Canongate Kirk, Edinburgh on January 20th, 1783.
