Back to King of the Clans

KING OF THE CLANS (Ri na gClann). Irish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (O'Neill): AA'BB' (Shanachie). An uncommon reel that is considered by many to be "awkward" to play because of the crossing of strings required, according to fiddler Andy McGann, who learned the tune from fiddler Martin Wynne.
