MUNCY. American, March (6/8). USA, southwestern Pa. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Bayard (1981) states the tune was probably named for Muncy, Lycoming County, Pennsylvania. He thought it was perhaps fife march (even though his source played it on the fiddle), and a member of the rather large group of tune families outlined in his note for "Lannigan's Ball."
