AKA and see "Curlew Hills Polka (The)," "Heel and Toe Polka (8)," "Military Schottische," "National Scottische." English, Scottish; Polka or Schottische (2/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). The schottische melody was popular under a variety of titles throughout Britain and Ireland, as well as on the Continent. It often was entered as "German Schottische" or "German Polka" in musicians' manuscript collection of the 19th century. It can be found, for example, in the 1850 music manuscript collection of shoemaker and fiddler William Winter of Somerset as "German Polka." Kerr sets the melody as a 2nd violin counterpoint to "Home Sweet Home," the whole presented as a "Duet for Two Violins." |f_source_for_notated_version= |f_printed_sources=Kerr (Merry Melodies vol. 1), c. 1880, p. 46.
