I just learned this great tune. I’d like to know, anyone play this single, or the first part double and the turn single? When I had it on Friday we could not decide about double or single so I’m curious. I was looking up the history for the tune and found from the FC that on the Tribute to Packie Duignan tape, Patsy Hanley plays the tune AAB AAB A. How do you do it?

I have this in a set after Josephine Keegan’s Cap and Bell.

Is the title it appears under in O’Neill’s.

Here’s a simplified version of the setting of The Fourpenny Bit in O’Neill’s 1001, #757. Triplets, bowings, and dotted rhythms removed/straightened. A more direct transcription is available at https://tunearch.org/wiki/Fourpenny_Bit_(The)

Based on the playing of Gerry Harrington and Eoghan O’Sullivan, on Scéal Eile https://thesession.org/recordings/1890
The Tain Ceili Band play a similar, compatible version but they double it, and on the repeat of the turn play |GBdg egfe| for a nice variant on the first bar.
