O'DWYER'S HORNPIPE [1] (Crannciuil Ui Dubuidir). AKA and see "Dwyer's Hornpipe (2)," "Durroch's Hornpipe," "Gasúr Mor (An)," "McConnell's," "Rock's Hornpipe," "O'Keeffe's Hornpipe (1)," "Prime's Hornpipe, "Prine's Hornpipe," "Waterford Hornpipe." Irish, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC (Levey): AA'BB'CC' (Harker/Rafferty, Moylan): AABBCCDD (O'Neill). The hornpipe was entered as "Dwyer's Hornpipe (2)" in Book 3 of the large c. 1883 music manuscript collection of County Leitrim piper and fiddler biography:Stephen Grier. The hornpipe is known in County Donegal as "An Gasur Mor" (The Big Young Lad), from the playing of fiddler John Doherty. The melody appears first in print in O'Farrell's Collection of National Irish Music for the Union Pipes & Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes (1797-1800) under the title "Waterford Hornpipe." A fourth part of the tune (actually part 3 in O'Neill's version) was added by Francis O'Neill in Music of Ireland (1903). O'Neill remarked in Irish Folk Music: A Fascinating Hobby (1910, pp. 117-118):

When quite young I heard an indifferent fiddler named Crowley, at Drimoleauge, in West Cork, play a tune which he called "O'Dwyer's Hornpipe," the tones and triplets of which haunted me more or less distinctly through life. The third strain seems to have come to me by intuition, for it is not one of the three which Crowley played. This hornpipe is and old traditional tune in Munster, but wellnigh forgotten in this generation. Somewhere, years ago, a poor and limited version of it was seen in a piano pamphlet, disguised as "De Wier's Hornpipe."

Uilleann piper Seamus Ennis recorded this hornpipe (as "Dwyer's") on his 1973 album "Pure Drop".
