CALUM BREUGACH (Lying Malcolm). AKA - "Callum Brogach," "Malcom the Liar." Scottish, Canadian; Strathspey. Canada, Cape Breton. A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). ABCD (Gow): AABCCB (Athole). "Very Old" says MacDonald. Paul Cranford notes that the word brogach, appearing variously as breugach and brougach, means 'lying' but that it can also mean 'filthy' or 'teasing' as well.
