Pointe Au Pic

A Traditional Quebec reel.

A nice version is played by Pierre Schryer & Dermot Byrne on their 2 Worlds United CD (New Canadian Records - see http://www.pierreschryer.com). They go into Pointe Au Pic after Galope Et Chaine De Cotillon.

Thanks to Ken Brown for the abc (he also did the abc for Galope).

help! abc2win won’t read the abc’s. has anyone else had a problem? Don

Reel du comté de Charlevoix, Qc

Je crois bien que ce reel a été enregistré pour la première fois par Joseph Bouchard (1905-1979) de la région de Charlevoix au Québec sur un disque du Tamanoir (la compagnie n’existe plus, mais elle a réédité des enregistrements de Jos Bouchard sur DC il y a une dizaine d’années).
Pointe-au-Pic est un village de la région de Charlevoix, à l’Est de la ville de Québec au Nord du Fleuve Saint-Laurent. C’est là où Bouchard vit le jour. Il avait l’habitude de rebaptiser les airs de son répertoire, alors il est possible que le reel de Pointe-au-Pic se trouve sous un autre nom quelque part… à suivre.

4 little blackberries

Didn’t it originate as the Scottish tune, Four Little Blackberries?

Another version, closer to the one played in Quebec
