GORDDINAM. Welsh, Air (whole time). G Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Gorddinam is a place-name in the parish of Dolwyddelan, Caernarfonshire, North Wales. The piece was earlier published by John Parry in his Ancient British Music (1742) as "Aria XVII," which may be the source for Edward Jones's version.
