Duchess Of Buccleuch's Favourite, The

Strathspey · 4/4 · G minor

The Duchess of Buccleuch's Favourite, The is a traditional Scottish strathspey in four-four meter and G minor, though its specific composer and exact origins remain uncertain. As a strathspey, it features the characteristic dotted rhythms and scotch snap that lend the dance tune a brisk, spirited, and distinctly energetic character. Because detailed historical associations and early publication records for this specific setting are not well documented, performers approach the piece with standard traditional Scottish fiddle articulation and ornamentation.
