MADAME RENAUD. AKA and see "Reel de Madame Renaud/Reel de Madame Renault/Reel de Mme. Renault," "Reel St-Émile," "Mrs. Renault's Reel." French-Canadian, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. The tune is related to the Scots melody "Bob of Fettercairn (The)" and the American old-time tune "Dr. Humphrey's Jig," finds Lisa Ornstein.
