I've heard this called "Groom's Tune", at folk festivals. Thanks for the info about the fiddle--I'll have to share that with my family.

W. H. Stepp, same song yet much different and much better. Also Stepp version is quoted extensively by Copland in the "Hoedown" in his work "Rodeo".

This is not the same tune as the one Stepp recorded and which Copland adapted into 'Hoedown'. The Stepp tune is a brisk-tempo square dance, but this is more of a slow march, and the melody is completely different. Lovely tune, but it bears no relation to the Stepp 'Bonaparte's Retreat'.

This song always lifts the heart. What blending of music by so many.
