"Fingall's Lamentation", also known as "Miss Guthrie's" is a Scottish air in<br> F Minor. The parts are played AABB.<br> Niel Gow stated that it was "a very old Gaelic air". Despite Gow's assertion that<br> the tune was very old, scholars could find no earlier printed version than Gow's<br> own. It is a typical example of the 'Celtic revival style' of Scottish fiddle<br> composition of Gow's era.<br> It was printed in Carlin's The Gow Collection (1986) and<br> Gow's Fourth Collection of Niel Gow's Reels, 2nd ed. (1800).<br> It was recorded by Abby Newton on Castles, Kirks and Caves (2001).<br>
