Re: Celtic Woman

What are the names of the tunes on the recording “The Butterfly” from Celtic woman. The first tune is clear: it’s the butterfly jig, very known tune. I transcribed the fallowing tunes. it’s definitely not an improvisation. There are all the time the same tunes/parts. On the session.org it’s called “piper on hoseback”. But what the fiddle plays, it’s not simular with“ the piper on horseback”. Thx for your help.

Re: Celtic Woman

I presume you mean this recording :

The tune she is playing [ 3rd tune, 2nd reel ] is called “Jig Away The Donkey”, not “The Piper On Horseback”. The 2 tune names have become confused after a certain fiddler getting the names wrong on a recording.
