QUADRILLE NATIONAL 1ÈRE PARTIE. French-Canadian, Quadrille or Polka (2/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Soucy researcher Jean Duval believes this quadrille part to be derived from a song tune that also appears as parts of other quadrilles, in both 6/8 and 2/4 time settings. He finds similar or cognate versions in Gaspésie fiddler Yvon Mimeault's "Véronique" and in Soucy's own "Reel du Jubilé (2)," recorded in 1935.
