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.

DAFYDD Y GARREG WEN (David of the White Rock). Welsh, Air (3/4 time). A Minor.
Standard tuning. AABB. A popular Welsh traditional song, the tune first appears
in Jones’s first edition of Musical and
Poetical Relicks of the Welsh Bards (1784), a collection of Welsh harp
music. The title refers to the 18th century blind harper and
composer David Owen—y Garreg Wen, or
‘the White Rock’ was the name of the farm on which he lived near Porthmadog in
Caernafonshire,

“Cariwch,” medd Dafydd, “fy nhelyn imi, Ceisiaf cyn marw roi tôn arni hi. Codwch fy nwylaw i gyrraedd y
tant; Duw a’ch bendithio fy ngweddw a’m plant!” ***
?Neithiwr me glywais lais angel fel hyn: ‘Dafydd, tyrd adref, a chwarae trwy’r glyn!’ Delyn fy mebyd, ffarwel I dy dant! Duw a’ch bendithio fy ngweddw a’m plant!” |
Dafydd said, ‘Bring me my harp, I’ll try to put a tune on it before I die. Raise my hand to reach the string. God bless you my widow and my children. Last night I heard the voice of an angel saying: ‘Dafydd, come home and play through the glen!’ Harp of my childhood, farewell to your music, God bless you my widow and my children. |

DAINTY
***
Ewan MacColl (Folk Songs and Ballads of Scotland) maintains that the name Dainty
Davie refers to the Reverend David Williamson, who died in 1706. It seems, says
MacColl, that the Reverend was the subject of an unauthenticated incident
related by Dean Swift. Williamson found himself pursued by dragoons, the story
goes, and while sensibly fleeing he found refuge in the bed of the daughter of
the Laird of Cherrytrees. Hiding was apparently not the only act he engaged in
while so occupied, but afterward he married the lass. A variant of the story
has it that the young miss (from whose voice the song is told) disguised the
Reverend in her clothing, tweaking him a bit by calling him ‘dainty’ Davie.
***
The melody was immensely popular,
given the number of versions in published collections and appearances in
fiddlers’ manuscripts of the 18th century. Its provenance appears to
be English, but it is strongly associated with Scotland, perhaps due to having
been popularised by Robert Burns. "This spirited tune was developed from a
simple Scottish strain about the end of the 18th century, by O'Farrell, a
famous Irish piper well known on the London stage,” said Captain Francies O’Neill.
He was surely in error, for the melody appears first in print in Henry
Playford’s Dancing Master, 12th edition (London, 1703, and in
subsequent editions, through the l8th, in 1728), and in numerous English country
dance publications such as London publishers Walsh (Compleat Country Dancing
Master, 1731) and Charles and Samuel Thompson’s 1765 country dance
collection. "I know nothing about this, farther than that the air and a
bit of the song remain in a remote corner of my memory from dim old times,”
remarked Irish collector P.W. Joyce. The title appears in Henry Robson's list
of popular Northumbrian song and dance tunes, which he published c. 1800, and
the tune appears in the 1799 Calvert
Collection, an assembly of tunes by Thomas Calvert, a musician from Kelso. A
note with his collection states that Calvert supplied “a variety of music and
instruments, instruments lent out, tun’d and repaired.” It also appears in Issac Cooper of Banff’s (b.
1755-d. 1810 or 1811, although sometimes the year is given as 1820) Collection of Strathspeys, Reels and Irish
Jigs for the Piano-Forte & Violin to which are added Scots, Irish &
Welch Airs Composed and Selected by I. Cooper at Banff (London, Edinburgh,
c. 1806). Purser (1992) believes Robert Burns wrecked the words of “Dainty
Davie” with successive revisions, attempting to clean them up for George
Thompson’s publications.
***
Dainty Davy was a lad;
He sold the shirt upon his back,
To buy his wife a looking‑glass,
To see how nice her beauty was:
So there was Dainty Davy! (Joyce).

DALE RITCHIE’S
HORNPIPE. Canadian, Hornpipe. Composed by Sarnia, southwestern Ontario,
fiddler John(ny) Durocher (1934-1989), in honor of another Sarnia fiddler. John
was born the youngest of sixteen children, to a modest family of few resources.
He quit school in his young teens to help make family ends meet and remained a
factory worker for most of his life, not even possessing a drivers license.
John came to fiddling when he found a broken fiddle in the trash one day and
asked the owner for permission to retrieve it; with some repair work he had his
first instrument. A few lessons from a local teacher (which served to teach him
how to read and write music), were all the formal music education John
received. He was a prolific composer of fiddle tunes, however, and named them
for sports and current events, family and friends and topics of his day, explains
Ritchie. Durocher’s music was picked up by radio fiddler Don Messer, who
included many of his tunes in his broadcasts and printed collections, helping
Durocher to become quite influential in the Ontario scene for his compositions.

DALKEITH HOUSE. Scottish, Reel. D Major/Mixolydian. Standard tuning. AB (Surenne): AAB
(most versions). Composed by James MacDonald, whom Hunter (1988) identifies as
one of the "professional" fiddlers who contributed to the Gow
collections. Gow (1817) notes he is the “late” Mr. MacDonald. Dalkeith is a
Celtic name meaning ‘meadow by the wood.’ Dalkeith Palace, Midlothian, was a 12th
century castle that came into the ownership of the Scotts of Buccleuch in 1651.
At the time the tune was earliest printed (in McGlashan’s c. 1786 collection)
Dalkeith House was occupied by the 3rd Duke and Duchess of
Buccleugh, Lady Elisabeth Montagu (b. 1743), who in 1767 became the wife of
Henry (1746-1812). Gow (Complete

D'Urfey and appeared (sung by Mrs. Willis) in the opera The Kingdom of the Birds, although it was also printed in vol. 1 of
his Pills to Purge Melancholy (1719).
The air quickly proved popular and was used for several subsequent ballad
operas such as Polly (1729), Fashionable Lady (1730), The Lottery (1731), The Devil to Pay (1731), and Jovial
Crew (1732). Playford published it in his Dancing Master (vol. II, 1728).
***
Since now the world's turned upside down,
And all things changed in Nature;
As if a doubt were newly grown,
We had the same Creator
Of ancient modes and former ways,
I'll teach you sirs, the manner
In good Queen Bess' golden days,
When I was dame of honour.
