Tune properties and standard notation
DONALD QUAICH. Scottish, Reel. A Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. "Very old," states Gow (1802). A 'quaich' is a small shallow bowl with projecting handles (from two to four) traditionally used for drinking whisky. The word 'quaich' derives form the Gaelic cuach, a cup or bowl. The tune was included by Cumbrian (Waverton) musician John Rook in his 1840 music manuscript (p. 189).
