the Cordwainer's March.

X:13059
T:the Cordwainer's March.
T:Mr Nairne's Strathspey [Daniel MacLaren]
T:the Revd. Patrick Macdonald of Kilmore [Alexander Campbell]
T:Lord Balgonie's Favorite [Niel and Nathaniel Gow]
T:Gloomy Winter [Robert Tannahill]
T:the theme from The Piano [Michael Nyman]
N:One of several tunes for the parades of the shoemakers' guild.
N:Probably the most-plagiarized tune in history; Aird's is the
N:earliest notated version, with another in Sharpe of Hoddom's MS
N:from about the same period (probably adapted from Aird's).  In
N:fact I wrote it myself, of course.
