Here's my setting of Maggie Lauder, certainly an auld tune as it seems to have first appeared, as far as I know, sometime in the 1600s.

Time for another auld tune. Jack Lattin was once popular all across these islands. Composed in Ireland sometime in the early 1700s it quickly spread across the Irish Sea and appears in many Scots music collections of the 18th century.

Syncopation in traditional Scottish music is a modern thing you say? Check out this from c. 1734, strain six from David Young’s twenty strain (!) setting of Tullich Reel (The Reel of Tulloch), from one of his Drummond Castle manuscripts. This is the same strain twice, transcribed two different ways. The first is exactly how it appears in the manuscript with only the ornamentation removed.
