MISS WEDDERBURN'S REEL [3]. Scottish, Reel (cut time). E Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. "Miss Wedderburn's Reel [3]" may be the same tune as "Miss Wedderburn's Reel (2)" from one of William Marshall's two 1781 collections, but I have not yet accessed the latter to compare them. biography:Donald Grant (c. 1790) describes the tune as "Old".
