BIRMINGHAM MARCH, THE. AKA and see Talk:Chimes. English, March. England, Shropshire. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The 'B' part of the tune is the same as the 'B' part for the Adderbury stick dance tune "Lads a Buncham." Under the title "Chimes" the melody appears in the 1785 music manuscript collection of American flute player Henry Beck. The name Birmingham (Warwickshire) derives from the Anglo-Saxon place-name 'Beorma's ham', meaning 'the homestead of Beorma'.
Source for notated version: a c. 1837-1840 MS by Shropshire musician John Moore [Ashman].
Printed source: Ashman (The Ironbridge Hornpipe), 1991; No. 91a, p. 36.
