MR. RONALD CRAWFORD. AKA – “Mr. Ronald Crawford’s Strathspey.” Scottish, Slow Strathspey (2/4 time) or Lament. F Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC’DD. Composed by Nathaniel Gow (1727-1807), to be played “very slow, with expression.” It is possible the person of the title is the same Robert Crawford honored in Joshua Campbell's "Mr. Ronald Crawford of Freskiehall's Strathspey" (see "annotation:Mr. Ronald Crawford of Freskiehall's Strathspey" for more. Jack Campin [1] notes similarities between Gow's piece and D.(probably Donald) MacDonald's "Lament on the Death of Jane Duchess of Gordon."
