GRANT OF STRATHSPEY, THE. AKA and see "Graf Spee (The)," "Grant's Strathspey." English, Reel. England, Northumberland. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCCDDEE. "I have not found this tune in any Scottish collections, but it is known in Ireland as the 'Graf Spee,' a curious corruption of the original title into the name of a German 1st World War battleship" (Seattle). The title derives from its publication in the c. 1790 collection of Donald Grant, thus "Grant's Strathspey." "Grant of Strathspey" is a corrupted title.
