YORKSHIRE LASSES [2]. Irish, Reel. In notes on their album "Traditional Music of Ireland and Shetland" How to Change a Flat Tire says the tune is northern Irish, from County Fermanagh, and that it is traditionally played in that county first in the key of E Minor, then in A minor. Cathal McConnell says it is an unusual tune because it is played in octaves (an unusual style for Fermanagh), generally by two fiddles. At the key change, one fiddle will take the high octave and the other takes the low octave.

Compare the first strain of "Yorkshire Lasses [2]" with the first strain of "Drunken Reel (1) (The)."
