Guy Bouchard notes that the tune is one that is not very melodic but is very well suited to the Sayguenay region step-dancing style. Recorded by Louis Boudreault, composed by him in honor of his Godmother Alfreda. A ''gigue'' in Québec is a stepdance, and the name attached to a tune simply means a vehicle for stepdancing, no matter what the meter. | '''GIGUE À MA TANTE ALFREDA, LA'''.
