The Last

Played by Verena Commins and Julie Langan on (their only?) recording "Fonnchaoi".
It comes from the Grier collection and is published in Ceol Rince na hEireann vol 4.
They call it "The Last Hornpipe" because it is the last tune (no. 225) in that book.
(The preview is showing big phrase markings on the second lines of A and B. I don’t know why they are there!)

Somehow that caused a big slur on the whole second line.
