Tune properties and standard notation


GINLEING GEORD(I)E. AKA and see "Wylam Away," "Wile Him Away." Scottish, English. England, Northumberland. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). Published in Henry Playford's 1700 collection of Scottish tunes (Original Scots Tunes, p. 5), where is appears as "Ginleing Georde". It was later printed in Neil Stewart's A Select Collection of Scots English Irish and Foreign Airs Jiggs & Marches (Edinburgh, 1788, p. 168). "Ginleing Geordie" is the indicated tune for a song ("Chronicle of the Heart") in Johnson's Scots Musical Museum, vol. 5 (1797, p. 482) but this appears to be a different tune than Playford's.
