'''HARDIMAN THE FIDDLER [1]''' (Fear-Tailce an fidileir). AKA - "Hardy Man the Fiddler." Irish, Slip Jig (9/8 time). D Major (O'Neill/1850 & 1001): D Mixolydian (Cranitch, Mallinson, Mitchell, O'Neill/Krassen, Tubridy): D Mixolydian ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part) {Feldman & O'Doherty}: D Minor (Tolman). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Mitchell): AAB (Cranitch, O'Neill, Taylor, Tolman, Tubridy): ABB (Feldman & O'Doherty): AABB (Mallinson). David Taylor (1992) suggests that these several tunes with the name "Hardiman" (of which "Hardiman the Fiddler" is probably the most famous) honor the historian James Hardiman, author of '''Irish Minstrelsy''' (1831). | |||

Researcher Connor Ward finds cognate slip jigs in local musicians' manuscript copybooks from Leitrim and Longford that predate O'Neill's "Hardiman" tune. Stephen Grier (c. 1883, Gortletteragh, Co. Leitrim) entitled a version "[[Pottien Whiskey]]" (Poitín Whiskey) while Francis Reynolds (c. 1885, Gaigue, Ballinamuck, Co. Longford) entitled his cognate version "[[Heart of a Loaf (The)]]", writes Conor, who also finds the second strain of "[[Campbells are Coming (3) (The)]]" (Tá na Caimbéalaigh ag Teacht) to be shared with the Grier and Reynolds tunes, and nearly parallel to that of "Hardiman," albeit one step higher (so that it is in 'E' minor/dorian rather than 'D' mixolydian). | |||

HARDIMAN THE FIDDLER [1] (Fear-Tailce an fidileir). AKA - "Hardy Man the Fiddler." Irish, Slip Jig (9/8 time). D Major (O'Neill/1850 & 1001): D Mixolydian (Cranitch, Mallinson, Mitchell, O'Neill/Krassen, Tubridy): D Mixolydian ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part) {Feldman & O'Doherty}: D Minor (Tolman). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Mitchell): AAB (Cranitch, O'Neill, Taylor, Tolman, Tubridy): ABB (Feldman & O'Doherty): AABB (Mallinson). David Taylor (1992) suggests that these several tunes with the name "Hardiman" (of which "Hardiman the Fiddler" is probably the most famous) honor the historian James Hardiman, author of Irish Minstrelsy (1831).
Researcher Connor Ward finds cognate slip jigs in local musicians' manuscript copybooks from Leitrim and Longford that predate O'Neill's "Hardiman" tune. Stephen Grier (c. 1883, Gortletteragh, Co. Leitrim) entitled a version "Pottien Whiskey" (Poitín Whiskey) while Francis Reynolds (c. 1885, Gaigue, Ballinamuck, Co. Longford) entitled his cognate version "Heart of a Loaf (The)", writes Conor, who also finds the second strain of "Campbells are Coming (3) (The)" (Tá na Caimbéalaigh ag Teacht) to be shared with the Grier and Reynolds tunes, and nearly parallel to that of "Hardiman," albeit one step higher (so that it is in 'E' minor/dorian rather than 'D' mixolydian).
