BULL RUN PICNIC. AKA and see "Chateauguay Reel." Old-Time, Breakdown. USA. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Similar to "Williamsburg Reel" published in Jarman's Old-Time Fiddlin' Tunes. Christeson evidently collected it as an untitled tune, the name supplied later by his friend Cy Kines (a native Virginian, which may account for the title). However, it is in fact a close variant of Joseph Allard's French-Canadian "Chateauguay Reel", with the parts reversed. Canadian radio stations could be picked up in Missouri in the evening, and some Canadian fiddle tunes entered American Midwest repertory in this manner.
Printed source: R.P. Christeson (Old Time Fiddlers Repertory, vol. 1), 1976; p. 100.
