RUSSIAN MARCH [1]. AKA and see "Russian Guards March." English (?), March (cut time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody was first published in Thomas Skillern's Military Amusement (c. 1785, p. 51) as "Russian Guards March". In America, it appears with the truncated title "Russian March" in Glazier, Masters & Smith's Fife Instructor (c. 1830, Hallowell, ME.), and in several of Elias Howe's publications. Samuel Bayard sees structural and melodic similarities with "Governor Jones' March" (AKA "Dow Everly (1)" and "Will Rarie Old March (1)") which also appears in Howe’s Musician’s Companion (1842). The tunes, while similar, are not cognate, however.
