WINSTER MORRIS DANCE/MARCH. AKA "Winster Processional." English, Morris Dance Tune (2/2 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Doyle): AABB (Bacon). The tune was used for a processional dance in the village of Winster, Derbyshire, England. It has since become the standard processional tune for many morris teams in the United States. This ditty is sometimes sung before the dance:

This is it and that is it
And this is morris dancing,
The piper fell and he broke his neck
And he said it was a chance Sir.
