GIGUE DES ARTISANS (The Craftsman's Jig). AKA and see: "Reel des travailleurs," "Traveller's Reel," "Walker Street." French-Canadian, Reel (cut time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. "Gigue des artisans" is Isidore Soucy's slightly 'crooked' interpretation of the venerable "<incipit title="load:walker" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Walker Street">Walker Street</incipit>" or "Traveller's Reel."
