 GLADIATOR. American, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composition credited to G.L. Tracy in Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883). George Lowell Tracy (1855-1921) was a young man who later composed light opera and composition books, according to musicologist Charles Wolfe. Evidently Tracy arranged music as well, for one publication from the 1880's indicates an Arthur & Sullivan work was arranged by him.
