CLOG EN FA. AKA and see "Sautillante (La)," "Set américain 2ième partie (Duguay)," "Sterling Tom," "Virginia Hornpipe (1)." French-Canadian, Clog (4/4 time). F Major ('A' part) & D Minor ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody is known today as "Set Américain" after the 1945 recording by accordion player Théodore Duguay. Researcher Jean Duval notes that original versions of the tune were set in the keys of F major and D minor, rather than D major and B minor as in Duguay's setting, remaking that Isidore Soucy's recording of the tune (as "Sautillante (La)") is also in F major with a second strain in D minor. Boucher's version is slightly 'crooked' (irregular) in the first strain. The tune was first printed in Glasgow by James S. Kerr in Merry Melodies vol. 3 (c. 1880's) as "Virginia Hornpipe (1)."
