From O’Neills

This was suggested in a recent discussion about Chistmas tunes, as #841 in O‘Neills. In my “O’Neills Dance Music of Ireland” it’s #103.

Rose-Bush

This tune, from the Ryan’s Mammoth Collection (p. 97), reminds me another one, but I can’t remember which one.

A Merry Christmas, X:2

Another version, from the Ryan’s Mammoth Collection where this tune is named “Rose-Bush”.

Merry Christmas Jig

what a jolly tune - and only 155 shopping days to go!

A Merry Christmas, X:3

Transcribed off of Eileen Ivers’s album, *An Nollaig*. Good opportunity for pipers to crann the bottom D in the A part.

Re: A Merry Christmas

Referring to Eileen Ivers “An Nollaig” ,this is the 3rd tune in a set starting with Gillian’s Apples.However the second tune is incorrectly listed as Frost is all over, It is in fact Paddy’s Return.
