MORGIANA IN SPAIN. English, Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBAA. Another Morgiania tune (see "Morgiana in England" and "Morgiana in Ireland") that appears in a number of musicians' manuscript collections from the 19th century, including John Clare (Helpston, Northants, 1820), John Bewich (Northumberland), William Winter (West Bagborough, Somerset), the Welch family (Bosham, Sussex, starting 1800), and James Winder (Wyresdale, Lancashire, 1835). Dance instructions for the tune were printed in G. Graupner's Collection of Country Dances and Cotillons (Boston, Massachusetts, c. 1808). In America the tune appears in George White's (Cherry Valley, New York) commonplace book kept from c. 1790 to 1830.
