I usually play Fisher's Hornpipe in F - Major Franklin style - a little bit slow and with a bit of a bump to it. But, I recorded it like that on youtube years ago, so I decided to go for something decidedly different today. While it's common to play Fisher's Hornpipe in F within Texas Style fiddling circles, D is the more common key for Celtic and Old-Time Fiddlers. I still think Fisher's Hornpipe is cooler in F, but playing it in D has it's advantages as well. The way the strings lay out differently lead to very different bowings and enough of a different feel that it's almost a totally different song, except for having the same notes in it. And, you can play the A part up an octave, which is way harder when you play it in F. Fisher's Hornpipe According to the Fiddler's Companion FISHER'S HORNPIPE (Crannciuil {Ui} Fishuir).

On the subject of the title, several writers have posited various speculations on who the 'Fisher' might have been. Charles Wolfe, among others, believes it was originally a classical composition by German composer Johann Christian Fischer (1733‑1800), a friend of Mozart's, which thought Samuel Bayard (1981) concurs, noting the tune goes back to latter 18th century England where it was composed by "J. Fishar" (presumably the same as Wolfe's Johann Christian Fischer) and "published in 1780" (Most of the alternate titles he gives {and which appear above} are "floaters"). Scholars Van Cleef and Keller (1980) identify the composer as one James A. Fishar, a dancer, musical director and ballet master at Covent Garden during the 1770's, and note it is included as "Hornpipe #1" in J. Fishar's (presumably James A. Fishar's) Sixteen Cotillons Sixteen Minuets Twelve Allemands and Twelve Hornpipes (John Rutherford, London, 1778). It has also been attributed to "18th century English fiddle player J.W. Fisher" [Callaghan, 2007]. A few years later the melody appeared in England under the title "Lord Howe's Hornpipe" in Longman and Broderip's 5th Selection of the Most Admired Dances, Reels, Minuets and Cotillions (London, c. 1784). McGlashan printed it about the same time in his Collection of Scots Measures (c. 1780, pg. 34) under the title "Danc'd by Aldridge," a reference to the famous stage dancer and pantomimist Robert Aldridge, a popular performer in the 1760's and 1770's. Although it is known in Europe as a hornpipe, it has also been played as a reel for dancing the Shetland Reel in Scotland's Shetland Islands. Linscott (1939) thinks the melody resembles an "ancient" Irish folk tune known as "Roger MacMum," implying it might have been derived from that source. There are stylistic similarities, to be sure, although "Roger" is a distinct melody from "Fisher's."
