CLOG À TI-JULES. French-Canadian, Reel (cut time). A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. The title is a reference to fiddler Jules Verret (1916-1982, "Ti-" meaning 'little'), who received tutelage at the age of 10 from "Pit Jornoch" (Pierre Verret, no relation), who lived in a neighboring parish and was a friend of Jules' father, accordion player Jean-Baptiste Verret (1894-1955). Jules' son, Jean-Marie Verret, recalled:
My father always considered him to be the greatest fiddler he had ever heard in his life. I was told that Pierre Verret learned his repertoire and style from Charlot Parent from Charlesbourg, which is a few kilometers southeast [ed. of Lac St-Charles], and at the time just a village. [1]
The tune is irregular with meters of 6/4 time interspersed with 4/4 meters, a form that Lisa Ornstein finds a sometime characteristic of, and unique to, Québécois music. Despite the word 'clog' in the title (which often means a dotted rhythm), the piece is played as a reel.
