SWEET MAID OF GLENDAUREL. Scottish, March (2/4 time). A Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The Scots Guards Standard Pipe Setting suggests that “The Sweet Maid of Glendaruel” follow “Campbell's Farewell to Redcastle.” Christine Martin (2002) prints the tune along with “Terribus” and “Corriechoillies Welcome to the Northern Meeting” as a medley for the dance The Gay Gordons.
Glendaruel is a glen in the Cowal peninsula in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, on the way to Tighnabruaich from Glencoe and is nearly as far to the south from Glencoe as Redcastle is to the north.
