Tune properties and standard notation


DOUG MACMASTER'S. Canadian, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB'. Paul Cranford wrote that he thought it likely the tune had an Irish provenance, and indeed, it is a version of "Gypsy Hornpipe (7)" or "Dan Sullivan's Favorite". The arrangement and title, he says, comes from a 1958 solo recording by MacMaster at the home of Doug and Peg MacMaster.

Source for notated version: Winston Fitzgerald (1914-1987, Cape Breton) [Cranford].

Printed sources: Cranford (Winston Fitzgerald), 1997; No. 49, p. 19.
