Thread Name: Tune Add: The Hole in the Wall (Henry Purcell)
Subject: RE: Tune Add: The Hole in the Wall: Henry Purcell

Curious to when / where it acquired the name. I know it as simply as Abdelazer Hornpipe

It was added to Playford's Dancing Master, in the second supplement to the 9th edition, published in 1698, as 'Hole In The Wall'. In B flat, incidentally.
