Clancy’s Frolics

I was surprised to find this tone not in TheSession’s database. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

I snagged the ABC from here: http://abcnotation.com/tunePage?a=trillian.mit.edu/~jc/music/abc/mirror/home.quicknet.nl/ireland/0204

Here’s an example of it being played very nicely on the flute (sadly not exactly the same notes as the ABC): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kW7fmc9VGU

There’s also another ABC (essentially the same) and more information on the tune here: http://tunearch.org/wiki/Clancy’s_Frolics
