'''DOGS AMONG(ST) THE BUSHES, THE''' ("Na madraide ameasg na tomaib" or "Na madri ameasg na dtom"). AKA and see "[[Athole Brose]]," "[[Brandlings]]." Irish, Reel. Ireland; County Sligo, Donegal. E Mixolydian (O'Neill/Krassen): G Major/Mixolydian (O'Neill/1850 & 1001): G Major (Flaherty, Mulvihill). Standard tuning. AB (Mulvihill, O'Neill/1850 & 1001): AABB (O'Neill/Krassen): AA'BB' (Flaherty). The tune is a close variant of the Scottish reel "[[Athole Brose]]"(and Neil Gow's "[[Brandlings]]"), also known as the strathspey "[[Buckingham House]]." In County Donegal the tune is played in the key of A Major (as in Scotland), unlike the rest of Ireland which plays it in G Major. An early recording of the melody was by Frank O'Higgins (1891-1975), a fiddler from Glenamona, Kilskeer, County Meath, in Dublin in 1937 (who paired the tune with "[[Merry Sisters (The)]]" and "[[Kitty Gone a Milking]]," still a widely imitated medley (Donegal fiddler John Doherty, for example, had the medley in his repertory). Paddy Ryan, writing in '''Treoir''', says O'Higgins "was a highly esteemed figure in traditional music circles in and around Dublin. He also taught the fiddler for many years and, among his star pupils was Larry Redican, who was prominent in New York traditional music circles during his lifetime there." | |f_annotation='''DOGS AMONG(ST) THE BUSHES, THE''' ("Na madraide ameasg na tomaib" or "Na madri ameasg na dtom").
