Revision as of 17:05, 13 July 2018

FRISKY. English, Reel. England, Northumbrian. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The title appears in Henry Robson's list of popular Northumbrian song and dance tunes which he published c. 1800. There are other period tunes that go by the name "Frisky" or "The Frisky," but this particular melody appears unique to Peacock's publication.

UR-TEXT Editorial annotation:

When the Copyist has made a choice, this has been marked with brackets "[ ]" or parenthesis "( )".
For example in Frisky, where there is no time signature in the original edition, or in Meggy's Foot (8^th) and Over the Border (9^th) and 11(^th) where there is a rhythmic inconsistency.

Peacock's contemporaries (e.g. Thomas Bewick), who referred to Peacock's style as having "his lilts, his pauses, and his variations" [L.Jessop], suggested to the copyist that ornaments, dotted notes, slurs, staccatos and graces must be left unaltered in this Urtext because they are expressions of the author. Nevertheless, the trill signs have been subsituted with the inverted mordent. This ornament is sometimes called a transient shake because it is really only a part of the more elaborate grace known as the "perfect trill". [K.W.Gehrkens]
