ROSSEN'S HOLLOS. AKA - "Byron's Fancy," "Ross's Hollows." AKA and see "Bond's Reel." Irish, Reel (cut time). E Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. "Rossen's Hollos" is contained in the music manuscript of curate and fiddler biography:Rev. Luke Donnellan (18780-1952), Oriel region, south Ulster[1]. According to Donnellan researcher Gerry O'Connor, there were some curious and only partially legible fragments of a title or comment in the original ms., one being "Aberdeen ....ary" and the other "End of the Aberdeen....ary." The title (as "Ross's Hollows") was included in the tune list of piper Philip Goodman (c. 1831-1908), Carrickmacross, Ireland, who is variously described as "the last professional and traditional piper in Farney, Louth", and also recorded as having been from Donaghmoyne, County Monaghan (all of which are places from the same area, and contiguous to the Donnellan's Oriel region).
Researcher Conor Ward connects "Rossen's Hollow" with the "Queen of the May (1)"/"Ladies' Taproom (The)" tune family
- ↑ Donnellan researcher Gerry O'Connor came to believe the ms. is not the work of the curate but rather was originally compiled by an unknown but able fiddler over the course of a playing lifetime, probably in the late 19th century. The ms. later came into the possession of Donnellan, who was also a fiddler.
