Tune properties and standard notation
HARE'S MAGGOT. AKA and see "Up with Aily." English, Country Dance Tune (3/2 time). A Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. One meaning of maggot is for a dram, a unit of liquid measure, but the musical meaning may stem from the word's derivation from the Italian word maggioletta, or a plaything. The melody was first published in the Dancing Master, 14th edition (1709), then published in London by John Young. It was retained in subsequent editions through the 18th and last, printed in 1728. It also appears in Walsh's Compleat Country Dancing Master, editions of 1718, 1735 and 1749.
