Tune properties and standard notation


HARDIMAN THE FIDDLER (Fear-Tailce an Fidileir). AKA - "Hardy Man the Fiddler." Irish, Slip Jig. D Major (O'Neill/1850 & 1001): D Mixolydian (Cranitch, Mallinson, Mitchell, O'Neill/Krassen, Tubridy): D Mixolydian ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part) {Feldman & O'Doherty}: D Minor (Tolman). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Mitchell): AAB (Cranitch, O'Neill, Taylor, Tolman, Tubridy): ABB (Feldman & O'Doherty): AABB (Mallinson). David Taylor (1992) suggests that these several tunes with the name "Hardiman" (of which "Hardiman the Fiddler" is probably the most famous) honor the historian James Hardiman, author of Irish Minstrelsy (1831).

Sources for notated versions: piper Willie Clancy (1918-1973, Miltown Malbay, west Clare) [Mitchell]; set dance music recorded at Na Píobairí Uilleann, late 1980's [Taylor]; fiddlers Francie and Mickey Byrne (County Donegal) [Feldman & O'Doherty].
