The Sprig of Ivy
A super Canadian Barn Dance tune (or play as a hornpipe) by Bruce Seton

Not a barn dance
This is a 2/4 march originally written for Highland pipes. I don't believe B. Seton who wrote the tune was Canadian either, but I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong in this respect.

Confusion explained?
Geoff, apologies, you were referring to the dance of course, not the country of origin! It's just a bit too early in the morning for my grey matter to be working properly! But, it is, of course a march.

Hamish Moore recorded it as a schottishe.
