SPRING GARDEN('S HORNPIPE) [1], THE (Gort an tobair). Irish, English; Hornpipe. England, Yorkshire. G Major (O'Neill): B Flat Major (Merryweather & Seattle). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Paul de Grae believes O'Neill's version of the tune is a reworking of 19th century Boston music publisher Elias Howe's "Norton's Best Hornpipe," later printed in Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883) as "Norton's Favorite" and "Remembrance of Dublin," and, slightly altered, as "Amazon Hornpipe"[1].
