STAR (HORNPIPE) [1], THE (Crannciuil an Realt). Irish, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Paul De Grae's remarks:

A curiosity, perhaps assembled from two different tunes in either Howe or Ryan. Its first part is very like that of Howe's "Double Clog Dance"; the first four bars of the second part resemble those of "Norton's Best" Hornpipe", while the remaining four bars of the second part are the same as the conclusion of the first part, i.e., like "Double Clog Dance."

The two Howe tunes reappear in Ryan: "Double Clog Dance" as "Gray's Opera House," and "Norton's Best Hornpipe" three times, "Norton's Favorite," "Remembrance of Dublin" and, slightly altered, "Amazon Hornpipe." The similarities to O'Neill's tune, though significant, are not exact; thus, either Howe or Ryan could have been the source with alterations, presumably, by the talented James O'Neill.

"Spellan's Fiddle: and "Spring Garden (The)" also appear to derive from one or both of these tunes, and are also sourced from James O'Neill.[1].
