SWAMP ANGEL HORNPIPE. AKA and see "Music in the Glen." American (?), Hornpipe. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. There was an American Civil War cannon called the "Swamp Angel," an eight-inch Parrott Seacoast Rifle. It was used by federal Brigadier General Quincy Adams Gillmore to bombard Charleston, South Carolina, and was manned by the 11th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment. The battle was the inspiration for Herman Melville's poem "The Swamp Angel." There is no clear association between the cannon and the hornpipe title, but one may yet be found, perhaps from Maine.
