BLÁTH DONN IS BÁN (The brown and white blossom/garland). Irish, Air (3/4 time). E Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part. There are no words extent for this air which Edward Bunting states is related to "that peculiar class" of melodies called 'Lunigs' in Scotland and 'Lobeens' in Ireland, which appear to be folk songs sung first by a single voice followed by a repetition of the tune by a chorus (see "Luibin"). "The setting given here (in his 1840 collection), which is that of the air as popularly sung, seems irregular in the transposition of the first four bars, which ought to occupy the place of the second four, and vice versa, to make the arrangement correspond with the model on which Irish melodies are generally constructed."
Source for notated version: the Irish collector Edward Bunting obtained the melody from another collector, George Petrie, in 1839.
Printed source: O'Sullivan/Bunting, 1983; No. 132, pp. 189-190.
