ROCKET HORNPIPE THE. Scottish (originally), Canadian; Hornpipe. Canada, Cape Breton. D Major (Kerr): F Major (Cranford/Holland). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A 19th century hornpipe written in the ‘Newcastle’ style, according to Nigel Gatherer, with similarities to “Newcastle Hornpipe (1) (The)” composed by the principal proponent of the style, Tyneside fiddler-composer and publican James Hill. Gatherer thinks the tune likely named in honor of Stephenson’s Rocket, an early steam locomotive of 1829-30. Another explanation might possibly be that in Ireland (and in Scotland?), especially in Limerick, a rocket was a little girls’ frock, adapted from the English-French rochet (P.W. Joyce). It was recorded by Shetland fiddler Arthur Scott Robertson (preceded by “College Hornpipe (The)”).
