Tune properties and standard notation
GRAMACHREE IS A SUP OF GOOD DRINK. English, Country Dance Tune (6/8 time). D Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). ABB. 'Gramachree' is an Englished version of the Irish "Gra Mo Croi" (Graidh mo chroidhe), or 'love of my heart.' The melody was published by James Aird in his 6th and last collection (1803), and seems unique to his publication.
