QUICK STEP [7]. Scottish, Quickstep (whole time). F Major (Watlen): G Major (Aird). Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The tune is attributed to the Countess Balcarres in John Watlen's Celebrated Circus Tunes (Edinburgh, 1791). The tune--and, in fact, every tune in Watlen's collection--was reprinted some five years later by Glasgow publisher James Aird, without credit to either source or composer.
