Tune properties and standard notation


FILL THE STOUP. Scottish, Reel. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Surenne): ABB (Kerr): AABBCCDD (Athole, Gow). John Glen (1891) finds the earliest appearance of this tune in print in Robert Ross's 1780 collection (p. 36). It was included by Kirkmichael, Perthshire, fiddler and composer Robert Petrie in his Second Collection of Strathspey Reels and Country Dances (1796). "Dornoch Links" follows a similar harmonic and melodic pattern, but is a different tune
