COTILLON DE BAIE-STE-CATHERINE. AKA - "Le Set." French-Canadian, Reel. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BBC. An irregular tune in both parts. The tiny hamlet of Baie-Ste-Catherine (pop. 260) sits alongside the Saguenay River's estuary; across the Saguenay is Tadoussac, known as "the Cradle of New France" and the oldest settlement in North America outside of Florida.

Source for notated version: fiddler Harry Poitras (b. 1890, Baie-Ste-Catherine), via dance ethnographer Simonne Voyer who collected both in Baie-Ste-Catherine in 1955 [Hart & Sandall].

Printed source: Hart & Sandall (Dance ce Soir), 2000; No. 73, p. 108.

Recorded source: Lisa Ornstein - "Danseries de la belle province" (1984).
