Tune of the Day: Harlequin Gambols

Traditional English tune

The earliest appearance of this English country dance tune is found in the 5th volume of Compleat Collection of 200 Favourite Country Dances by Samuel, Ann & Peter Thompson, published 1788. The melody was developed into a hornpipe in Scotland under the title “The Colosseum”.
