LOWLANDS OF SCOTLAND, THE. AKA and see "Ewe Reel (The)," "My Love is Far Away," "Scotch Mary." Scottish, Irish; Reel. E Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Kennedy): AA'BB' (Kerr). The reel is traditionally paired with the strathspey "Highlands of Scotland (1) (The)." It appears (as "Lowlands of Scotland") in the large mid-19th century music manuscript collection of County Cork cleric and uilleann piper Canon James Goodman. although Goodman's setting is distanced from that printed in the Kerr's collection.
