DUNTULM QUICKSTEP. Scottish, March (4/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Duntulm, or, in Scottish Gaelic Dùn Thuilm, is in a remote area on the northwest coast of the Isle of Skye, Scotland. It is the site of a Pictish fortress, later occupied by the Vikings. The MacDonald clan invested the area in the 16th century and made improvements to the fort, until they too abandoned it in favor of their new castle at Armadale.
