ONE O'CLOCK CANNON, THE. Scottish, Reel. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCCDD. A Scottish country dance and tune written and composed in 1994 by Ian Brockbank. The title commemorates the firing of the cannon from Edinburgh Castle, which occurs daily at 1PM. "The One O'Clock Canon" (note spelling change) is the name of Brockbank's 64-bar country dance, in which the new top couple start their motion at 32 bars, while the previous couple continue.
