SPINNING WHEEL [6], THE. Scottish, Air (cut or whole time). G Major (Oswald): D Major (O'Farrell). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. "The Spinning Wheel [6]" was published around the year 1760 by cellist and composer wikipedia:James_Oswald in the second volume of his Caledonian Pocket Companion. Some fifty years later, piper O'Farrell published the tune in his own Pocket Companion for the Union or Irish Pipes, vol. 3 (London, c. 1809), which differs from Oswald in melodic detail, while still recognizably the same tune.
