RICHMOND [1]. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Virginia. D Major ('A' part) & A Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Like the better-known "Richmond Cotillion" the tune is in old-time 'cotillion' form, meaning the 1st and 2nd strains are in two different keys, a fifth apart. The melodies are otherwise unrelated, however.
