LAZY TROULLOUPE, THE. American, Jig (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune was entered into the 1859 music manuscript collection of amateur musician M.E. Eames, who may have lived in Philadelphia (judging from some tune names in the collection). There were a half dozen or more that were entered into Eames' collection contiguously that appear in the same order in Elias Howe's Musician's Omnibus Nos. 6 & 7 (Boston, 1880-1882) (see also "French Fancy Dance," "Staten's Fancy," "Liberty's Welcome," "Sour Kraut," "Gentleman Blacksmith (The)", "Billy's Fancy"), indicating that Eames and Howe had them from the same page in an earlier, as yet unknown, source.


Additional notes



Printed sources : - Elias Howe (Musician’s Omnibus Nos. 6 & 7), Boston, 1880-1882; p. 642.
