NORTHERN FRISK [3], A. English, "Old" or Triple Hornpipe (3/2 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. "Northern Frisk [3]" is contained in Daniel Wright's An Extraordinary Collection of Pleasant and Merry Humours (c. 1705, printed in London by Henry Playford). It is an odd piece, as John Offord (1985) points out, that meanders seemingly at will until the cadence of the final measure of each part.
