REEL DE JOSEPH LARADE. French-Canadian, Reel (cut time). Canada, Cape Breton. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. This untitled reel was in the repertory of Acadian fiddler, singer and 'brawler' Joseph Athanase Larade of the francophone community of Cheticamp, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Larade was able to sing and accompany himself on the fiddle at the same time. Folklorist Father Anselme Chiasson recorded Joseph A. Larade’s music onto cassette in the late 1950's, albeit the majority collected were songs.



Larade's untitled tune is a unique version of "Princess Royal (1) (The)", usually attributed to the Irish bard O'Carolan, but which may have been an English country dance tune called "New Princess Royal" printed by John Walsh in London in the 1730's.
