What the available versions show

The scores share a G-major opening with a one-sharp key signature, but they do not all present the music the same way. Two scores titled Duke of Perth use 2/2, while the score titled Duke of Perth's Reel uses 4/4. Check the title and notation of the version you open rather than assuming every setting is identical.

Choosing between 4/4 and 2/2

Time signature affects how the music is grouped on the page. The 2/2 scores present a broader two-beat grouping, while the 4/4 score is grouped in four. Compare the beaming and barring in each score and choose the notation that matches how you already count or hear the tune.

Attribution and title checks

None of the available scores names a composer, and the scores are listed under Misc tunes. Treat the composer as unconfirmed. Compare titles carefully as well: a score called Duke of Perth's Reel may not be the same setting as one called Duke of Perth.

Before practising

Confirm the key and time signature first, then compare the opening bars across versions if you are choosing one to learn. The available scores do not carry a verified difficulty grade, so assess the notation itself before deciding whether it suits your level.
