ST. LAWRENCE JIG. AKA and see "Set de Vaudreuil 1ère partie." Canadian, American; Jig (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Miller & Perron, Page, Sweet): AABB'BB' (Phillips). The tune has been part of the core repertoire for New England contra dances for some time, and is a popular dance tune throughout French and English speaking Canada. Montreal fiddler Joseph Allard (1873-1947) recorded a version in 1930 as the first figure in his "Set de Vaudreuil 1ère partie," a four-part quadrille set.
