SHORT APRON [1], THE. Scottish, Jig (6/8 time). F Major/D Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Directions to one version of this tune (which begins in major mode and resolves to the relative minor) were written down in 1752 by John McGill, a dancing master in Girvan, for his students. John Glen (1891) finds the earliest appearance of the tune in Robert Bremner's 1757 collection; it also appears in the Gillespie Manuscript of Perth, 1768.
