Tune properties and standard notation
GORMAN'S REEL [3] (Ríl Uí Ghormáin). AKA and see "Laurel Bush (The)," "Laurel Tree (The)," Irish, Reel. A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). ABB. The "Gorman's" title appears to be idiosyncratic to Breathnach's volume 2, and may simply be a mistaken title. O'Neill's "On the Sly" is the same in the first part, but not the second. Similarly, "Lochiel's awa to France but he'll come again" is the same in the first part, although the second is the same as "Mountain Rose (The)." Ciaran Carson mentions the tune in his book Last Night's Fun (1996), played in a set with "Johnny Going to Ceili" and "Long and Slender Sally (The)," obtained from flute player Cathal McConnell "of Ballanaleck on the shores of Lough Erne." Carson thought McConnell had the set from the late John Maguire, father of fiddle 'maestro' Sean McGuire [sic].
Source for notated version: whistle player Johnny Maguire, 1966 (Co. Cavan & Belfast, Ireland) [Breathnach].
Printed sources: Breathnach (CRÉ II), 1976; No. 247, p. 128. Ceol, iii, p. 27.
