Tune properties and standard notation
CAMPBELL'S ALLEMAND. Scottish (?), Country Dance Tune (2/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody appears in the c. 1788 music manuscript book of Thomas Molyneaux, of Shelburne, Nova Scotia. Molyneaux, a flute player, was evidently an ensign in the British army at one time. It also appears in print in James Campbell's A Collection of Marches, Quick Steps, Strathspeys, Reels, &c. (Glasgow, 1796).
