RIVALS (THE). AKA and see "How Much Has She Got?." Irish, Jig (6/8 time). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Paul de Grae provides a cogent observation:
Usually, when a tune is shown in [O'Neill's Music of Ireland] in a major mode and in [O'Neill's Dance Music of Ireland] in a minor mode, it is the [Dance Music of Ireland] setting which sounds more correct, especially with tunes in the key of A. In this case, however, the [Music of Ireland] setting--with three sharps in the key signature and a liberal sprinkling of G naturals--sounds preferable to the [Dance Music of Ireland] setting, which is in A dorian (i.e. with F# only). This seems to be confirmed by the [O'Neill's Irish Music, 134] setting, which has a key signature of two sharps with just a penultimate G# accidental in each part[1].
See notes for the related tunes "annotation:Field of Flowers (The)" and "annotation:How Much Has She Got?" for more.
