CAPTAIN KEELER. AKA - "Captain Keller." AKA and see "Black-Eyed Lassie," "Lowland Amusement." Scottish (originally), Canadian; Reel. Canada; Ontario, Cape Breton. B Flat Major ('A' part) & G Minor ('B' part) {most versions): A Major ('A' part) & F Sharp Minor ('B' part) {Surenne}. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Cranford/Fitzgerald, Kennedy, Surenne): AAB (Athole, Balmoral, Gow, S. Johnson, Honeyman, Kerr, Milne): AABB (Hunter, Skye, Welling). Glen (1891) finds the earliest printing of the tune in Neil Stewart's 1761 collection (p. 47), as "Captain Keller," a title that persisted in 18th century publications. In 19th century collections the reel most often appears as "Captain Keeler." O'Neill (1922) remarks: "The above clever tune first appeared in 1761 in A Collection of the Newest and the Best Reels and Country Dances, published in Edinburgh by Neil Stewart. As 'Capt. Keller's Reel' it has been reprinted in recent years, but without the spirited second finish."
"Lowland Amusement" is a pipe-reel setting of "Captain Keeler," printed by Glasgow piper, pipe teacher and pipe-maker William Gunn in 1848.
