Back to Firth of Cromortie (The)
FIRTH OF CROMORTIE, THE. Scottish, Reel. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The melody appears in John and Andrew Gow's A Collection of Slow Airs, Strathspeys and Reels (London, c. 1795). Andrew (1760-1803) and younger brother John (1764-1826) established a publishing business in London in 1788 and were the English distributors for the Gow family musical publications. The Firth of Cromartie or Cromarty is formed from the Orron Water, a stream arising in the mountains of Ross-shire, which meets with other streams flowing from Loch Gillon and Loch Luichart, as it flows to the north-east. Dingwall lies at the head of the bay.
