Back to Fitzgerald's Hornpipe (2)


FITZGERALD'S HORNPIPE [2]. AKA and see "Corney Drew's Hornpipe." Irish, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Breathnach's "Fitzgerald's Hornpipe (1)” is a version of this tune. Paul de Grae suggests the "Fitzgerald's Hornpipe," title from music manuscripts of Church of Ireland cleric and uilleann piper James Goodman (1828-1894), may refer to William Fitzgerald of Conrea, Ballydesmond. Fitzgerald was a travelling fiddle master and a contemporary of Corney Drew, who wrote a music manuscript dating from 1866, after which he emigrated to America and was lost to history. His manuscript survived in Ireland, however (Dan Herlihy has a copy, notes Paul). The melody appears as "Corney Drew's Hornpipe" in several of Captain O'Neill's publications.

Source for notated version: the music manuscript collection of James Goodman (Co. Cork) [Hugh Shields].
