Oisin’s

Couldn’t find this among the pile of tunes already here. Don’t know anything about it except that it’s the second tune played by Oisin MacDiarmada and Louise Mulcahy, after the Tinker’s Stick, on this clip: http://comhaltas.ie/music/detail/comhaltaslive_214_1_duet_with_louise_mulcahy_and_oisin_macdiarmada

There’s some confusion about whether the melody pops up to an A or a G# in the fourth measure of the B part. It seems that you could do either.

Does anyone have any info on this tune?

G# ??

I meant to say that the melody pops up to either an A or G. G# would be fairly weird.

so it is! thanks!

Re: McDonagh’s

The “McDonagh’s” posted above as “Setting #2” is a different tune which shares the same name, and both were recorded by Matt Molloy in the same set on his first solo album.
