'''REEL DE RIMOUSKI.''' AKA - "[[Reel de l'harmonica]]," "[[Rimouski (Le)]]." French-Canadian, Reel. G Major ('A' part), C Major ('B' part) & F Major ('C' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'CC'A"A"'B"B"'C"C"'A""A""'. Rimouski is a town on the east bank of the St. Lawrence River, above Quebec City.  The tune is attributed to Saint-Sauveur, Quebec, violinist Fortunat Malouin (1870-1935) who lived in Quebec City but was originally from Saint-Sauveur, Québec. He was an influential musician who recorded in the 1920's. His "Reel de Rimouski" (recorded as "Le Rimouski" in New York in 1928) has become a show-case tune for fiddlers. The melody was included in Montreal musician, publisher, and music dealer A.J. Boucher's (1869-1927) '''Le Repertoire du Violonneux [sic]''' (Dec., 1933), a collection of Quebecois tunes that included versions of all eight tunes that Malouin recorded--all under different titles. "Reel de Rimouski" ("Le Rimouski") appears as "Le Vieux Champion." Researcher Jean Duval believes that Boucher and Malouin were rivals or competitors, at least from Boucher's point of view, and that Boucher may have been seeking to point out that "Les Joyeuses Québecoises" was not Malouin's composition, but rather a part of older Quebecois repertory appropriated by him. He also may have been trying to 'show Malouin up' by printing (as the first piece in the collection) a version with (as Duval says) "fairly acrobatic variations", perhaps to show his musical superiority over Malouin<ref>Jean Duval, '''Le Répertoire du Violoneux''', 2018, p. 71 [https://leviolondejos.wiki/images/9/9a/Le_Répertoire_du_Violoneux_de_J-A_Boucher_(réédition_2018_par_Jean_Duval).pdf].</ref>. <br>
