"Newcastle" is also known as "Come You Not from Newcastle?". The air was published in the first edition of The English Dancing Master (1651), where it was the tune for a special country dance, a "round for 4 couples". "Newcastle" appears through the 8th edition of 1690, after which it was dropped. The English city of Newcastle is in Northumberland, near the border with Scotland. "Newcastle" is a popular melody with early music groups. The Newcastle dance most often seen in modern times is from Cecil Sharp in the 2nd volume of the Country Dance Book in 1911, altered by Sharp in the 6th volume of the Country Dance Book in 1922. It was also printed in Chappell's Popular Music of the Olden Time, vol. 1 (1859) and Karpeles & Schofield's A Selection of 100 English Folk Dance Airs (1951). It was recorded on The English Country Dancing Master, vol 2 by The Telemann Society, Country Capers by The New York Renaissance Band and A Trip to Kilburn by The Baltimore Consort.
