REEL DE I'ÎLE BIZARD (Bizard Island Reel). AKA and see "Doc Boyd's Jig," "Old Jubiter," "Reel du forgeron (2)," "Republican Set (The)." French-Canadian, Jig (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. "Reel de I'île Bizard", named for an island in the St. Lawrence River northwest of the island of Montreal, is fiddler Joseph Allard's (1873-1947) version of "<incipit title="load:republican" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Republican Set (The)">Republican Set (The)</incipit>," found Samuel Bayard's Dance to the Fiddle (1981), and "<incipit title="load:jubiter" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Old Jubiter">Old Jubiter</incipit>" from Ira Ford's Traditional Music in America (1940), records Allard researcher Jean Duval[1]. Bayard collected the tune from a fiddler in southwestern Pennsylvania in 1960, while Ira Ford had it from a source in Missouri. Neither one seems to indicate a provenance however, as Ford included tunes from a geographically widespread area, while Bayard's version was collected relatively late with an idiosyncratic title. Allard's source is unknown.

Duval also notes that the tune was recorded by The Cornhuskers as "<incipit title="load:bod" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Doc Boyd's Jig">Doc Boyd's Jig</incipit>," a mid-20th century Canadian group that included fiddler Jean Carignan, a pupil of Allard's[2]. Allard himself re-recorded the tune six years later under the title "Reel du forgeron (2)" (Blacksmith's Reel).
