BELLE CATHERINE À ÉDOUARD RICHARD, LA. French-Canadian, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAA'BBB'. This appears to be a Gaspésian version of Belle Catherine (3) (La). Guy Bouchard notes in his book Airs Tordus (2nd ed.) that this tune is incorrectly labeled as Reel Anticonich on M. Richard's album. There is, in fact, another tune of the name but it does not appear on M. Richard's recording. The time has been variously barred in mostly duple time, or a mixture of triple and duple time (see Olivier Demers' transcription).
