Lord Gordon's sheet music

Lord Gordon's sheet music is listed under related titles including Lord Alexander Gordon's Reel and Lord Alexander Gordon's -- Strathspey. The available scores open in D major or A major and use 2/2 or 4/4 time, giving musicians several notated settings to compare. Composer attribution is not supplied, so the listings are best approached as individual scores rather than a verified definitive edition.

What the listings show

The page groups three scores under Lord Gordon's, but their titles are variants: 'Lord Alexander Gordon’s Reel', 'Lord Alex.r Gordon's Reel' and 'Lord Alexander Gordon's -- Strathspey'. No composer is credited for any of them. The listings give opening keys of D major and A major and time signatures of 2/2 and 4/4, but these details describe individual scores rather than a verified definitive version.

Reel and strathspey labels

Two titles use 'Reel' and one uses 'Strathspey'. Treat the label as a description of that listing, not proof of a single authorised form.

Comparing keys and metre

D major appears in both reel-titled listings, but one is notated in 2/2 and the other in 4/4. The strathspey-titled listing is in A major and 4/4.

Limits of the evidence

The available information does not identify a composer, instrument or historical source for these scores. Note counts and durations describe individual listings and should not be read as proof of a complete or authoritative edition. Check the score itself for the details you need.

Common questions

Who composed Lord Gordon's?

Composer attribution is absent from the available scores of Lord Gordon's; the listings use the related titles 'Lord Alexander Gordon's Reel' and 'Lord Alexander Gordon's -- Strathspey' without naming a composer. The historical authorship of the music is therefore not established by this evidence.

What keys and time signatures are used in the available Lord Gordon's scores?

The listed versions of Lord Gordon's open in different keys and metres: one reel opens in D major with a 2/2 time signature, another reel opens in D major with 4/4, and the strathspey-titled version opens in A major with 4/4. These describe the opening of each score, not necessarily every section.

Is Lord Gordon's a reel or a strathspey?

The catalogue titles use both labels: two listings call the piece a reel, and one calls it a strathspey.

How do the listed versions of Lord Gordon's differ?

The three listed scores differ in title, opening key, time signature and listed note count. Two reel-titled versions open in D major, one in 2/2 and one in 4/4; the strathspey-titled version opens in A major in 4/4. Listed note counts vary from 141 to 470, which indicates that the versions are not identical in extent.

Which version of Lord Gordon's should I choose?

Choice depends on the key and metre required. A D major reel is available in both 2/2 and 4/4 notation, while an A major strathspey-titled version is also listed.

What instrumentation is Lord Gordon's written for?

Instrumentation is not credited on the listed scores of Lord Gordon's, and no composer or instrument is named. The intended instrument should therefore be confirmed from the score itself rather than assumed from the title.
