HIGHLAND WEDDING [1] (A' Bhanais Ghaidhealach). AKA and see "Buttered Peas (1)," "Buttered Pease (1)," "Jack's be the Daddy On't," "Stumpie/Stumpey," "Wap an' Rowe." Scottish, March (2/4 time). A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCCDDEEFF'. Adapted and arranged as a march by Angus Mackay of Raasay. Mackay's father, John MacKay of Raasay, had been among the last of the pupils at the famous ancient piping college of the MacCrimmons at Boreraig. The younger Mackay wrote, while still in his early twenties, a book called A Collection of Ancient Piobaireachd, or Highland Pipe Music; a piper's bible for many decades after its appearance in 1838. Great Highland bagpiper Hamish Moore believes "Highland Wedding" was derived from the famous strathspey "Stumpie," which originally appeared as "Butter'd Peas."
