O'REILLY'S FAVORITE (Roga Ui Ragallaig). Irish, Double Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB.

Martin O'Reilly

Source for notated version: "O'Reilly" [O'Neill]. O'Neill may be crediting blind Galway piper Martin O'Reilly, who competed in the Dublin Feis at the turn of the 20th century but who died in a poorhouse within a few years, "ignored by the dilettantes who only a few years before had 'rediscovered' him" [Boys of the Lough]. There is a sympathetic biographical sketch of O'Reilly in Francis O'Neill's Irish Minstrels and Musicians (1913, pp. 239-240).

Printed sources: O'Neill (Krassen), 1976; p. 63. O'Neill (Music of Ireland: 1850 Melodies), 1903; No. 1059, p. 199.
