EDINBURGH REEL [1]. AKA and see "Scotch Fiddle." American (?), Reel (2/4 time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune appears twice in Rhode Island fiddler, music publisher and music store-keeper George Saunders' New and Compleat Instructor for the Violin. a unique violin tutor that incorporates dance tunes popular and in use for dances by Saunders. The reel first appears as "Edinburgh Reel" on page 17, but then curiously was printed again with a different title, "Scotch Fiddle," on page 34. Despite Saunders' titles, the reel does not seem to have Scottish antecedents, and it is perhaps his own fancy that it sounds Scottish and deserved of titles reflecting that country.
