PORTROWE [2], THE. Irish, Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Bronx fiddler Martin Mulvihill (1919-1987) got his "Port-" and "Carra-" confused, for what he entered in his 1st Collection (1986) as "The Portrowe" is really the "Carraroe Jig (The)," recorded in 1931 by the old Ballinakill Ceili Band.

Printed sources: Mulvihill (1st Collection), 1986; No. 96, p. 85 (learned from a recording by Canny and Hayes).
