BONNELL'S QUICKSTEP. AKA - "Bonnell's March," "Virginia Quickstep," "Dancing Mustang (The)," "Major Crichton's Delight" (Eng.), "Davy Davy Knick Knack" (Eng.), "Hoe Cake." American, Quickstep or March. USA, southwestern Pa. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune is international in origin, according to Bayard (1981), having antecedents in Britain and Europe. In Pennsylvania, however, it is known as a tune for fife and drum bands. The Pennsylvania versions are named for a renowned fifer from Geene County named "Doc" Bonnell. Bayard found two Flemish versions, and says Dutch authority Florimond van Duyse considered it a fife or flagolet tune dating to the latter 18th or beginning 19th century.

Sources for notated versions: Bayard's 'A' version is from the Hoge MS; various other versions ('B'-'H') were collected from southwestern Pa. fifers and fiddlers.

Printed source: Bayard (Dance to the Fiddle), 1981; No. 210, pp. 164-167.
