Canada; Cape Breton, Prince Edward Island. A Major (Johnson, Perlman): G Major (Martin, Sweet). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Johnson, Sweet): AABB (Martin, Perlman). A well-known bagpipe march which entered fiddle repertory, perhaps through fife and drum sources. The piece is said to have been composed by either Ewen MacGregor or his pupil David Fraser, both pipers to Simon Lord Lovat. The tune would be in mixolydian mode for the bagpipes.
