Eoin’s Polka No. 1

This is the first tune on the album “Disgrace Notes” by Séamus Begley and Tim Edey, recorded in 2010.

The polka set (together with Eoin’s Polka No. 2) was written by Begley’s son Eoin O’Beaglaoí and thus named Eoin’s.

I transcribed it from hearing, so please forgive any mistakes.. 🙂

Re: Polca Eoín

Really nice polka! Is there a typo in bar 9? It feels as though it should be like bar 5 with the F#-G-A run, not F#-A-B as written.
