BRID HARPER'S [1]. Irish, Reel. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB'. Fiddler Brid Harper Rafferty, originally from Castlefin, Donegal, now lives in Tyrone. In an interesting journey, the tune was learned by Harper in the 1980's in a session in Ottawa from the playing of Denis Lanctôt, originally from Quebec. As a result it has been ascribed French-Canadian origins. It is a Canadian tune, however, albeit one composed by western Canadian fiddler Grant Lamb, who plays in a Canadian "old-tyme" style. There is a hornpipe version of the tune ("Dermot Byrne's") also traveling in Irish trad. circles.
