O'GALLAGHER'S HORNPIPE (Crannciuil Ui Galcobair). Irish, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB.

Source for notated version: O'Gallagher [O'Neill]. The only 'O'Gallagher' O'Neill references in his Irish Minstrels and Musicians was a Timothy O'Gallagher, a piper from Clofert, who "played most excellently" for an exhibition in Ireland in the 1860's. He is probably not O'Neill's source for the tune.

Printed sources: O'Neill (Krassen), 1976; p. 177. O'Neill (Music of Ireland: 1850 Melodies), 1903; No. 1617, p. 300.
