An Peata Sa Chisineach

Just added this tune, as heard on "Ceol Aduaidh" by Mairead Ni Mhaoanaigh and Frankie Kennedy.

They follow this with "An Fathach Tireannach" (in Dmaj instead of Amaj as written on this site), and then play "Atholl Highlanders". Nice set!

First Part sounds like Jig of Slurs which is often played with Atholl Highlanders

Looks like you might have had a cut and paste error in preparing the abc for the second part. The second part here is from a different tune. The second part as played on Ceol Aduaidh is

Starts the same but then diverges.

Sorry for the wrong information. I just looked at the sleeve notes of the recording and found the pet isn’t James Byrne’s fiddle but someone else’s hung on a kitchen wall. Well, is it common to hang instruments on the wall in Donegal?

Similar to a number of tunes but near enough identical to https://thesession.org/tunes/3644. Apparently it was John Doherty’s fiddle hanging on the wall in his kitchen.
