GRAMIN. Scottish (originally), Canadian; Hornpipe. Canada, Cape Breton. B Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composed by the great Scottish fiddler, dancing master and composer biography:J. Scott Skinner (1843-1927). Gramin was the name of a friend of the composer's, the name being the pen-name of George Gordon Ingram (1848-1936), born at Glenrinnes, Morayshire. He was a poet and songwriter who sometimes wrote verses for Skinner's music. Skinner wrote another tune for him called "Good Bye Gramin," also published in his Logie Collection (1888), when he learned of his friend's plans to emigrate to the United States. Gramin left for St. Paul, Minnesota, early in 1889, but returned to Scotland to visit sometime before the end of the century. Skinner wrote that he was looking forward to seeing him again.
