Seafaring was a popular theme for Gilbert and Sullivan, with HMS Pinafore, The Pirates of Penzance and the magnificent Ruddigore. This hornpipe has a definite Last-Night-of-the-Proms flavour and should be played at breakneck speed.
Selected from The Seafaring Fiddler. For this brand new collection of fiddle tunes from the golden age of sail Edward Huws Jones has researched and compiled an eclectic selection of sea shanties, ‘forebitters’, jigs, reels, hornpipes, songs and other melodies which were traditionally played as accompaniment to hard labour or times of recreation for sailors at sea.
