WEDDING NIGHT JIG, THE. AKA and see "Boc Liath Nan Gobhar" (Grey Buck (The)), "Drive the Cows Home," "Highland Quickstep," "Lass of Kintail," "Loving Black Lad (The)," "Maids of Kintail." Cape Breton, Jig. A Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A different setting of the tune appears in MacDonald's Gesto Collection of Highland Music (1895) as a quickstep (a pipe march in 6/8 time). Kate Dunlay (1989) says Cape Breton fiddlers frequently use quickstep tunes as jigs.
