'''MR. GARDEN OF TROUP'S FAREWELL TO FRANCE'''. Scottish, Slow Air or Strathspey (whole time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Composed by [[biography:Robert Petrie]] (1767-1830), a native of Kirkmichael, Perthshire, who was employed as a gardener at Troup House. He was an excellent fiddler and had a reputation as a profligate and non conformist, but is reputed to have won either a 'silver bow' or a cup (depending on the story) at a competition at Edinburgh in 1822. There is no evidence that the prize ever appeared in Kirkmichael, however. Petrie composed many tunes and published four collections in his lifetime. The following tune in his '''Second Collection of Strathspey Reels &c.''' (1796), dedicated to Mrs. Garden of Troup, is "[[Mr. Garden of Troup's Welcome Home]]," a stathspey; the two were probably meant to be played as a pair. | |||
