Back to Lancaster Hornpipe (2)

LANCASTER HORNPIPE [2]. Scottish, Triple Hornpipe (3/2 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). The melody, in the old hornpipe metre, appears in the Bodleian Manuscript (in the Bodleian Library, Oxford), inscribed "A Collection of the Newest Country Dances Performed in Scotland written at Edinburgh by D.A. Young, W.M. 1740." The old hornpipe metre survived particularly in the English midland counties, especially Lancashire. See also potential duple time derivatives in the ms. of William Irwin: "Lancashire Hornpipe (3)" and "Lancashire Hornpipe (5)."
