Borthwick Riddell's Hornpipe | The Tune Vault
Borthwick Riddell's Hornpipe
- The Tune Vault
by Stewart Hardy
A fabulous tune, probably originating in the Scottish Borders, which can be found in the Jack (‘Kielder Jock’) Davidson Manuscript, housed in the Morpeth Chantry Bagpipe Museum, and which was first introduced to me by the wonderful Matt Seattle. There are no sharps in the key signature in the original but most people play it in the Dorian mode which is how Matt published it in The Northumbrian Pipers Pocket Book - Green Book. There is also a lovely A major reworking of the tune by the border fiddler Bob Hopkirk known as The Borthwick Reel. Borthwick Riddell was a celebrated nineteenth century piper from the Scottish Borders.

The Bellingham Boat | The Tune Vault
Просмотров 18121 день назад
The Bellingham Boat - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy This is one of my favourite Northumbrian Jigs which I first heard played by the Bay Band in Cullercoats. It is sometimes attributed to the Northumbrian fiddler, piper, tunesmith and dancing master, Robert Whinham. However, I’m not aware of any concrete evidence for this. Bellingham is a tiny market town, barely more than a village, up the No...

Rusty Gulley (Risty Gulley; Three Sharp Knives) - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy I first learnt this fabulous triple hornpipe from the Northumbrian piper, Chris Ormston. It appears in two of my favourite Northumbrian manuscripts: as The Risty Gulley in the William Vickers MS and as Three Sharp Knives in the Henry Atkinson MS. It is a wonderfully accessible tune and can be heard in sessions thr...

Neil Taylor's Jig (Willy Taylor) - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy Writing Willy Taylor’s obituary in the Guardian, his good friend, the great concertina player Alistair Anderson, recounts that the internationally renowned Shetland fiddler, Aly Bain, described Willy as the finest player of jigs he had ever heard. Luckily for us, Willy also wrote some crackers and this belter was composed for hi...

Storrer's Hornpipe (Bank's Hornpipe) - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy I was looking for a rant in A and my friend, Rob Say, pointed me towards this absolute belter. It’s one of those wonderfully versatile tunes. In the Scottish tradition it appears as both a reel and a hornpipe but it also appears in the manuscript of Lakeland fiddler, William Irwin, and the Northumbrian manuscript of John Hal...

Planxty Drew (Turlough O’Carolan) - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy One of my prized vinyl recordings was Johnny Cunningham’s fabulous LP, Fair Warning. There were so many brilliant tunes and all played with technical virtuosity and great musicianship. This tune was on there, paired together with Planxty Wilkinson. The two can be found side by side in O’Neill’s Music of Ireland. For free basic ...

Bonaparte's Expedition (Bonapart's Expedition) - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy I take great delight in spending time looking through dusty music manuscripts and old publications (new ones too for that matter). This tune comes from John Peacock’s collection of tunes for the Northumbrian pipes from the early nineteenth century. When I first played through the material in this book it completely...

Morven's March (Mhairi Mackinnon) - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy An absolutely stunning tune by a wonderful fiddler and tunesmith from Perthshire in Scotland. Mhairi exemplifies the excellence of musicianship and technique so prevalent among this generation of Scottish folk musicians. Our culture is all the richer for their contribution. For free basic notation of this tune, and other Tune V...

Dunstanburgh Castle (W. Miller) - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy Another fabulous rant from Billy Miller, a founder member of The Cheviot Ranters, and one of the finest Northumbrian fiddlers of his generation. Dunstanburgh castle lies on the Northumbrian coast between the villages of Craster and Low Newton-by-the-Sea. It has long been a favourite family destination and never fails to impress o...

Black Joak (Black Joke) - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy The Grandaddy of all the ‘Joak’ or ‘Joke’ tunes, this must surely be a strong contender for the title of ‘Most Popular Folk Tune’ in the English tradition. Dating from at least the early Eighteenth Century, it is hard to overstate just how quickly its popularity spread. Fabulous though the tune is, that popularity may well have been assi...

However, there are two that are particularly current. The more well known version, which is sometimes referred to as the New Morpeth Rant, has already been deposited into The Tune Vault. This version, which contains similarities with the older manusc...

Blenheim Castle - The Tune Vault by Stewart Hardy This famous monument, more commonly known as Blenheim Palace, was one of Sir John Vanbrugh’s architectural designs, but one which gave him little joy. Commissioned by the Duke of Marlborough, he fell out with the Duchess, whose preferred architect had been Sir Christopher Wren, and was eventually booted off the project. The tune can be found in ...

What a beautiful Well played version😊
Well done! Lovely tune.
Beautiful playing! Definitely going to try and learn this from your video
Wonderful playing there Stewart. Real control of the bow and fiddle on display.
Very nicely played. I'm going to steal your ornamentation 😊
Wow, so that's what it's supposed to sound like!!! ❤😂
I was going through a list of tunes to learn for a Sunday session - this being one of them. I love the feel and pulse of this - it really brings the tunes to life.
Thanks man, very nice, loved it!
Jolly tune excellently executed! Thank you!
This is amazing. I downloaded the basic sheet music you provided on your website, but I would like to have a version that has the bowings and ornamentations you're using. Is this something I can purchase? I wasn't able to find this song in the purchase area. Please advise . Thank you! Absolutely lovely rendition!
Hi Chad, thank you so much for the kind words. Delighted you enjoyed it. I do have resources for this tune. Please do get in touch via the website (www.stewarthardy.co.uk/contact/) and we’ll sort something out for you.
I stumbled here and got goosebumps within 10 seconds! Thanks!
Interesting mode on this one. It’s basically the same as “Love and Whisky” in the Winder book. Where did you find this version? Lovely playing by the way!
This version is in the manuscript of Northumbrian fiddler, William Vickers. I heard it played on the CD 'Scalene' by Sandra Kerr, Nancy Kerr and James Fagan and have loved it ever since.
Wow 🤗
Great rhythm, and the bowed triplets are ace! 🎶🌟👍
Excellent really.
Lovely! Thank you from Canada
Nice playing.
Superb - may try this tune now ….
Quel joli son!
Thank you! Keep forgetting this tune 👍
Sir, that was a very well executed tune! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and love for music. Greetings from Barcelona.
Wow
Aahhh didans, c’est formidable 🤗
Beautiful tune, excellently executed! Thank you for sharing your musical talent to the world!
Thanks for the kind words.
Lovely, thank you!
Cool version. I used to put it after Trip to Skye and then speed it up with Trip to Pakistan. Thanks for sharing it
Are the dots in one of the pipers green books ? Great tune.
Yes, that's right - it's in the Northumbrian Piper's Pocket Green book, available from the NPS website.
What a beautiful rendition of one of my favourite pieces of music by Lauren MacColl and Calum Stewart 👍
Many thanks - it is a gorgeous tune!
I used to hate this tune...but now I need to learn it properly 😊. That's great.
Very enjoyable - thank you.
Fab tune, Stewart! Love it!
Thanks, Edna - great tune, isn't it!
A fine job with a fine tune!
Brilliant! I need that tune Stewart.
A fine tune and beautifully played!
Thank you!
Very nice
Beautiful playing, Stewart! This is a gorgeous melody.
Brilliant Stewart, and very complicated piece.
Great tune Stewart: thanks.
Gorgeous tune, beautifully played, thanks Stewart. So soulful and urgent, I love it. Definitely going on my "to learn" list...
Loved your playing, especially the sudden quiet part in the middle. Very expensive. Thanks so much.
So beautiful :)
Best version of the Canon in D that I've ever heard!
A great hornpipe and beautifully played!
Lovely! Sounds tricky with that double stopping 😮
Gorgeous ❤
Tricky tune executed beautifully. Light as a feather then strong and robust. Tatally under control. I love solo violin.
Lovely playing. Plenty of life in the music. Great composition by O'Carolan.
What a super tune
An interesting contrast to Childgrove which I play on treble recorder with variations when I play through a second time
I reckon after a gallon of whiskey it might sound a tad different 🙂 Lovely bright tune. Thank you for sharing.
