GIGUE DU VIOLONEUX. French-Canadian, Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. The jig appears to be derivative of the 19th century American song and jig "Captain Jinks." Fiddler Joseph Allard [1] [2] (1873-1947) recorded the tune in 1929 for the Victor label, but it was issued under the title "Le Reel du violoneux" (not 'gigue').

Source for notated version: Joseph Allard [Cuillerier].

Printed sources: Cuillerier (Joseph Allard), 1992; p. 10.

Recorded sources: Victor 263648-b (78 RPM), Joseph Allard.

Listen to Allard's recording: [3]
