"Hiawatha", also known as "The Rialto Hornpipe" is an American (originally) and
Canadian hornpipe or clog in B Flat Major. The parts are played AABB.
The melody has currency among Cape Breton fiddlers, influenced by the recording by Winston "Scotty" Fitzgerald. It was printed in Cole's 1000 Fiddle Tunes (1940), Cranford's Jerry Holland's Collection (1995), Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883) and Phillips' Fiddle Case Tunebook: British Isles (1989). It was recorded by Jerry Holland on Jerry Holland (1976) and Sean McGuire on The Best Of Sean McGuire (1971) (as "The Rialto"). |
