HORNPIPE [123]. English, Hornpipe (whole time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. This untitled hornpipe was entered in the mid-19th century music manuscript of William Winter[1], a shoemaker and violin player who lived in West Bagborough in Somerset, southwest England. The first several bars are very similar to the opening measures of 20th century Pennsylvania fiddler Jehile Kirkuff's "Mabel Henry's Fling."
