BUFFALO CHASE. Canadian, Reel (cut time). Canada, Manitoba. B Flat Major ('A' part) & F Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). ABB. "Buffalo Chase" was composed by Metis fiddler biography:Andy DeJarlis (1914-1975), of Woodridge, Manitoba. For Indigenous peoples on the plains, bison were an essential element of their ways of life. When the great bison herds were all but extinguished by the late nineteenth century, the lives of the peoples who depended on them were equally devastated and radically changed.
