This tune can also be heard in the 7th Harry Potter Movie (part 1) for the wedding of Bill and Fleur Weasley scene. It is also played along with another jig called The Humours of Glendart.

Here is the scene….

I saw this in the tune book ‘Trip to Sligo’ by Bernard Flaherty on p. 174 under the name ‘The Flaxdresser’. The version there is similar
to the Mary Mac transcription above.

This is the other tune in the set that is heard played for Bill and Fleur Weasley’s wedding in the 7th Harry Potter Movie, The Deathly Hallows, Part 1 of 2… But, who are the musicians playing it?
