Notation
Note: The tunes below are recorded in what
is called “abc notation.” They
can easily be converted to standard musical notation via highlighting with your
cursor starting at “X:1” through to the end of the abc’s, then
“cutting-and-pasting” the highlighted notation into one of the many abc
conversion programs available, or at concertina.net’s incredibly handy “ABC
Convert-A-Matic” at http://www.concertina.net/tunes_convert.html **Please note that the abc’s in the Fiddler’s
Companion work fine in most abc conversion programs. For example, I use
abc2win and abcNavigator 2 with no problems whatsoever with direct
cut-and-pasting. However, due to an anomaly of the html, pasting the abc’s
into the concertina.net converter results in double-spacing. For
concertina.net’s conversion program to work you must remove the spaces
between all the lines of abc notation after pasting, so that they are
single-spaced, with no intervening blank lines. This being done, the F/C
abc’s will convert to standard notation nicely. Or, get a copy of
abcNavigator 2 – its well worth it.

Musiciologist Paul Tyler has
discovered an account by one Joseph Hayes, born in 1786 in Pennsylvania,
who moved from that state down the same Ohio river to settle in Lawrenceburg,
Indiana. Late in his life he dictated memories of frontier life from
circa 1810, including an account of dancing after corn-huskings. Hayes writes
that at these events "in one corner would be seated the fiddler delving
way with fingers, elbow, cat-gut and horse-hair, to the joy of all around - The
pieces of music mostly called for, were 'The gray cat kittened in Charley's
wig,’ 'Captain Johnston', 'Buncomb' &c. the whole ending in a jig called
'Clear the kitchen'.” The melody appears in Ryan’s
Mammoth Collection (1883, pg. 168) as “The Bonnie Lassie.” Source for notated version: John
Doherty (1895-1970, County Donegal) [Feldman & O’Doherty]. Feldman &

CATCHES AND GLES (Glees). Scottish, Northumbrian; Jig. D Major. Standard
tuning. AABB. A country dance to this tune appeared in Charles and Samuel
Thompson’s Twenty Four Country Dances (London, 1769). One of the "missing tunes"
of Vickers' 1770 Northumbrian dance tune manuscript. The title probably refers
to the 'Catch', or a canon for three or more voices (where a great deal of
skill was needed by the singers for each voice to 'catch' up his part at the
right point) which was very popular in the 17th century. Some of the best texts
of the catch at this later time, according to Pulver (1923), were constructed
so that the entries of the different singers resulted in amusing and often
suggestive or risqué word-combinations. Source for notated version: the music
manuscript of Captain George Bush (1753?-1797), a fiddler and officer in the
Continental Army during the American Revolution [Keller]. Keller (Fiddle
Tunes from the American Revolution), 1992; pg. 22. McGlashan (Collection of Scots Measures), 177?; pg.

Ulster, elucidates O'Sullivan (1983). The tune does not appear to be the
"Charles Machugh" (Catal Mac Aodh)--the wild boy--printed in
O'Neill's (1850 Melodies), though Bunting gives that name as an alternate
title. Source for notated version: the Irish collector Edward Bunting noted the
tune from the harper Charles Byrne in 1792.
CATHAL’S FAVOURITE. AKA and see “The Old Flail.”
Irish, Jig. G major. Standard. AA’BB’. The tune is actually a Vincent Broderick
composition called “The Flail” and appears in
his book The Turoe Stone. The title
“Cathal’s Favourite” refers to Boys of the Lough flute player Cathal McConnell.
The Boys recorded the tune on their album “Good Friends, Good Music,” and when
preparing to put together the flute tracks with Cathal, Patsy Hanley and
Vincent Broderick, the other two were surprised to find that the latter
musician was in fact the composer!
