PATSY HANLEY’S. AKA - "Patsy Hanly's," "Hanley's." AKA and see "New Line to Loughaun (The)," "Purty Girls of our Town (The)." Irish, Reel (cut time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune is named for County Roscommon flute player Patsy Hanly, who composed it in the key of C Major, although it is heard in D also (e.g. by Harry Bradley, Peter Carberry). Patsy himself had the reel from fiddler James Hanly[1] of Newtowncashel, Co. Longford, who had learned it from a farm laborer named Eavers who was locally known as a whistler and lilter [1]. The "New Line to Loughaun" title comes from the 2007 recording "Pathway to the Well" by flute player Matt Molloy.
Fr. John Quinn transcribed a version of the tune in the 1970's from the playing of Jim Donlon of Aghaloughan, Lanesborough, County Longford, where Fr. Quinn was curate at the time. Donlon called the reel "Purty Girls of our Town (The)." Fr. Quinn suspects it is possible Matt Moloy's title, "New Line to Loughaun", may be a mishearing in conversation with Patsy Hanley of Jim Donlon's address (Aghaloughan). He suggests Moloy probably had the tune in the key of 'C' from Patsy Hanly, "who in turn probably got it from Jim Donlon. They often played together."
- ↑ Fr. Quinn remarks that James Hanly was a pupil of fiddler Thomas ‘Blind’ Kiernan (c.1807-1887) of Cartron, Drumlish.
