Back to Mrs. Crotty's Hornpipe


MRS. CROTTY’S (HORNPIPE). Irish, Hornpipe. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). The melody is sourced to County Clare musician Mrs. Crotty, via Dublin fiddler Mary McElvaney, and concertina player and piper Gearoid O’ hAllmhurain. The first strain is cognate with the first strain of the reel "Pouca (The)" printed by McGuire and Keegan in 1975.
