BELFAST HORNPIPE [2]. AKA and see "Lass on the Strand (1) (The)." Irish, Hornpipe. G Major ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The first strain is shared with "Belfast Hornpipe (1)," "Royal Belfast," "Millicent's Hornpipe," "Millicen's Favourite," and "Sweep's Hornpipe (1).” "Lass on the Strand" begins in a similar way, and there has been some confusion between the two titles (hence a listing as "Lass on the Strand (2)"). Similarly, Glasgow publisher James S. Kerr's "Strand (The)" is very similar in the first strain, but unrelated in the second.

Source for notated version: Chicago Police Sergeant James O'Neill, a fiddler originally from County Down and Francis O'Neill's collaborator [O'Neill].

Printed sources: O'Neill (Music of Ireland: 1850 Melodies), 1903; No. 1647, p. 306.
