BANK OF IRELAND [1], THE (Bannc na h-Éireann). Irish, Reel. A Dorian or Mixolydian ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Miller): AA'B (O'Neill/1850, 1001 & 1915): AABB (Harker/Rafferty, Mallinson, O'Neill/Krassen, Taylor). The 'A' part begins on a C Major chord at the beginning of each four bar phrase, but resolves to a D Major chord at the end of each. "Bank of Ireland" was recorded in the 1924 by flute player Tom Morrision with fiddler Tom Higgins and melodeon player P.J. Conlon. Although the 'c' note is usually played natural in the tune, the melodeon does not have a 'c' natural note in the scale, necessitating the players to either play the note as a 'c sharp' or modulating to a relative minor key [1]. See also note for "Reidy's Reel." The tune is still a popular reel at Irish sessions today.
Sources for notated versions: a recording of Miltown Malbay, County Clare, fiddler Bobby Casey (1926-2000), winner of the All-Ireland fiddle in 1952 and 1968 [Miller & Perron]; New Jersey flute player Mike Rafferty, born in Ballinakill, Co. Galway, in 1926 [Harker].
