'''BLACK HEADED DEARIE''' ("Ceann Dubh Dilis" or "Cean Dub Oilir"). AKA - "Black Haired Darling." AKA and see "[[Auld Jew (The)]]," "[[Old Jew (The)]]," "[[Love and the Novice]]," "[[Irish Round (The)]],"  "[[Kennington Wells]]." Irish, Air or March (3/4 or 6/8 {"airily"} time). D Mixolydian (O'Sullivan/Bunting): D Major (O'Neill): D Minor/Dorian (O'Neill): E Minor (Gow). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (most air versions): AAB (Gow, O'Neill--march version). This beautiful air is thought to have been composed in Ireland during the first decade of the 17th century or earlier, and early versions were often set in a minor key (though the great Irish collector Edward Bunting maintains "it was sung by the peasantry to this day" {i.e. around 1840} in the mixolydian mode). In England it was known as "[[Irish Round (The)]]" or "[[Kennington Wells]]" and was printed by Playford in the 1710 edition of his '''Dancing Master''' (p. 146); in Scotland it was called "[[Auld Jew (The)]]." In addition to the printed sources listed below, Bunting finds the tune in a "small collection of Irish airs, published about 1726 by Neal, of Christ Church Yard, Dublin...and by Burke Thumouth as well as Oswald in his '''Caledonian Pocket Companion'''." O'Neill ('''Music of Ireland''') prints the air in major and minor keys and then renders the tune as a major key march.
<br>
<br>
John Mulholland printed it in his '''Ancient Irish Airs''' (Belfast, 1810) under the title "Cean dubh dilios" (Black but lovely), which, in translation, is a different tune than the similar-sounding title "[[Black but Comely]]". 
<br>
<br>
''Source for notated version'': the index to the Irish collector Edward Bunting's 1840 collection states the piece was noted from "T. Conlan in 1831."
