CAOINEADH EOGHAIN RUA (Lament for Owen Roe). Irish, Slow Air. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. "There is some dispute over who this air is named for. Some argue for Owen Roe O'Neill, nephew of "the Great O'Neill" and commander of the Irish army which drove out the English in the mid-17th century. Others claim the lament is for Owen Roe O'Sullivan (Eoghain of the sweet month) the great 18th century poet from the province of Munster."
