ROCK REEL, THE. Irish, Reel (cut or whole time). A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. "The Rock Reel" is contained in the late 19th/early 20th century music manuscript that was in the possession of curate Rev. Luke Donnellan, Oriel region, south Ulster[1]. "Rock Reel" was also included in the tune list of piper Philip Goodman (c. 1831-1908), Carrickmacross, Ireland, who is variously described as "the last professional and traditional piper in Farney, Louth", and also recorded as having been from Donaghmoyne, County Monaghan (all of which are places from the same area, and contiguous to the Donnellan's Oriel region).
Donnellan set the tune in A minor, recast as A dorian by O'Connor.
Researchers Fr. John Quinn and Conor Ward link "Rock Reel" with the "Famous Ballymote (The)" tune family that includes "Marquis of Huntly's Reel (3)," "Pleasant Gardens (The)," "Roast Beef from London," "Pride of Ahamore, "Skibbereen Lasses (The)," and "Sporting Days of Easter (4) (The)."
- ↑ Donnellan researcher Gerry O'Connor came to believe the ms. is not the work of the curate but rather was originally compiled by an unknown but able fiddler over the course of a playing lifetime, probably in the late 19th century. The ms. later came into the possession of Donnellan, who was also a fiddler.
