CALGARY POLKA. AKA and see "Gaudet Polka." American; Polka. USA, Texas. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BCAA'. Calgary, Alberta, was named in 1876 by Colonel MacLeod, after his boyhood home, "a little inlet on the sparsely populated island of Mull, with a few grey cottages and one big house" (Matthews, 1972). The word is Norse in origin and may have meant an enclosure for calves.
