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.

O' COCKPEN. AKA and see "When She Cam Ben (She Bobbit),"
"Cat in the Hopper,"
"Lord Doneraile," "Boys in the Gap [1]." Scottish,
Jig and Air. E Minor (Kerr): G Minor (Howe). Standard tuning. One part (Howe):
AABB (Kerr). Cockpen is located in the east of Edinburghshire, also called
Mid-Lothian. The tune was originally "When She Came Ben She Bobbit"
(or "when she came through the parlour, she curtseyed"), until about
1810 when it became known as "The Laird of Cockpen," after Lady Nairne's
(Caroline Oliphant) words to it. The song was one of the ones selected by Queen
Victoria for a recital by noted singer of Scots songs John Wilson, during her
visit to Taymouth Castle in 1842. The tune can be found in the “Davies
Collection.” Lady Nairne’s lyric goes:
***
The laird o'
Cockpen, he's proud an' he's great,
His mind is ta'en up wi' things o' the State;
He wanted a wife, his braw house to keep,
But favour wi' wooin' was fashious to seek.
***
Down by the
dyke-side a lady did dwell,
At his table head he thought she'd look well,
McClish's ae daughter o' Claversha' Lee,
A penniless lass wi' a lang pedigree.
***
His wig was
weel pouther'd and as gude as new,
His waistcoat was white, his coat it was blue;
He put on a ring, a sword, and cock'd hat,
And wha could refuse the laird wi' a' that?
***
He took the
grey mare, and rode cannily,
An' rapp'd at the yett o' Claversha' Lee;
"Gae tell Mistress Jean to come speedily ben,
She's wanted to speak to the Laird o' Cockpen".
***
Mistress Jean
was makin' the elderflower wine;
"An' what brings the laird at sic a like time?"
She put aff her apron, and on her silk gown,
Her mutch wi' red ribbons, and gaed awa' down.
***
An' when she
cam' ben, he bowed fu' low,
An' what was his errand he soon let her know;
Amazed was the laird when the lady said "Na",
And wi' a laigh curtsie she turned awa'.
***
Dumfounder'd
was he, nae sigh did he gie,
He mounted his mare - he rade cannily;
An' aften he thought, as he gaed through the glen,
She's daft to refuse the Laird o' Cockpen.
***
And now that
the laird his exit had made,
Mistress Jean she reflected on what she had said;
"Oh, for ane I'll get better, it's waur I'll get ten,
I was daft to refuse the Laird o' Cockpen".
***
Next time that
the laird and the lady was seen,
They were gaun arm-in-arm to the kirk on the green;
Now she sits in the ha' like a weel-tappit hen,
But as yet there's nae chickens appear'd at Cockpen.

LAIRD OF COCKPEN'S
SCOTCH-MEASURE, THE. Scottish. The melody appears in
Henry Playford's 1700 collection of Scottish dance tunes.
LAIRD O' DRUMBLAIR
STRATHSPEY, THE. Scottish, Strathspey or
Schottische. A Major (Alburger, Bain, Brody, Cranford, Emmerson, Phillips,
Skinner): G Major (McCutcheon). Standard or AEae (recommended by Skinner in
1904) tunings. AB (Alburger, Hardie, Hunter, Johnson, Skinner): AA'B
(Emmerson): AABB (Bain, Brody, Cranford, Phillips): AA’BB’ (Perlman). The
mansion of Drumblair lies in the Parish of Forgue, on the north-western borders
of Aberdeenshire in the North West of Scotland. The tune was composed by J. Scott Skinner (1843‑1927) for his friend and
benefactor William F. McHardy of Drumblair, who gave Skinner use of a rent‑free
cottage for many years to support his art. In his autobiography (My Life and Adventures, Wallace Music,
1994) Skinner wrote that McHardy, the Laird, was so impressed with the
composition that for the remaining 15 years of his life he sent Skinner a
thank-you check at Christmas-time.
McHardy could apparently well afford to be magnanimous, for he had made
a fortune of over 100,000 pounds in South America with engineering enterprises
before returning to live at Forgue near Huntly. The tune is considered
one of the finest and most famous of Skinner's 600 compositions, and appears in
his Harp and Claymore collection. It
was one of the tunes included by him later in his career in the romantically
entitled 1921 concert set "Warblings From the Hills." Skinner,
writing in his autobiography My Life and
Adventures (first serialized in The
People’s Journal, 1923), described his inspiration for the tune:
"Suddenly [one night] a tune, 'pat' and complete, flashed into my head in
his honour. I jumped out of bed [looking for music manuscript paper]...but a
search produced nothing better than a piece of soap paper, and on this I
promptly dashed off 'The Laird o' Drumblair.' And the tune was dispatched as it
had been written." “Ye’re no’ gaun tae send that awfy-like paper tae the
Laird,” protested his wife, “He’ll jist licht his pipe wi’ it!” It was sent anyway.
Skinner also rendered the same melodic motif as a reel called “Angus Campbell.” Sources for notated

old friend in Gulberwich, Andrew Ridland. Anderson & Georgeson (Da Mirrie Dancers), 1970; pg. 31.
LAIRD OF MACFARLANE’S, THE.
Scottish, Strathspey. C Major. Standard tuning. AAB. Dr. Samuel Johnson,
in his account of his Scottish travels (A
Journey to the Western Isles of Scotland), mentions that on
***
Where races are thus numerous, and thus combined, none but the Chief of
a clan
is addressed by his name. The Laird of Dunvegan is called MacLeod, but
other
gentlemen of the same family are denominated by the places where they
reside,
as Raasa, or Talisker. The distinction of the meaner people is made by
their
Christian names. In consequence of this practice, the late Laird of
Macfarlane,
an eminent genealogist, considered himself as disrespectfully treated,
if the common
addition was applied to him. Mr. Macfarlane, said he, may with equal
propriety be
said to many; but I, and I only, am Macfarlane.

The Laird, renowned as a great
antiquary, died in 1767. Gow (Second

LAIRD OF MACKINTOSH. Scottish, Strathspey. G Major. Standard tuning. AB (Athole, Gow): AAB
(Hardie, Hunter). The Laird of Mackintosh resides at Castle Moy, and is the
chief of the Clan Chattan. The castle lies in the mountain region of
Inverness-shire, in the hollow of a mountain on the edge of a small lake, Loch Moy.
In 1831 Sir Walter Scott gave that it was “surrounded by a black wood of Scotch
fir, which extends around the lake, and terminates in wild heaths, which are
unbroken by any other object as far as the eye can reach.” During the period
1704 and 1833 no Mackintosh Chief left a son to follow him, a circumstance
known as “The Curse of Moy,” with the result that the leadership of the clan
passed from kinsman to kinsman, eventually including those residing in
