Barndance, reel or hornpipe?
No place in the tune description for 'march', so I've given it 'barndance' for the moment!

McMillan's March
This tune is by Brian Pickell (note spelling of tune title). Liner notes on a CD he recorded with Pierre Schryer, The New Canadian Waltz, say that he wrote it for a friend in North Carolina.
