JOCKEY'S HORNPIPE [2]. Irish, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody appears in the mid-19th century music manuscript collection of uilleann piper and Church of Ireland cleric James Goodman. The tune is of unknown provenance, with little in its melodic character to indicate an Irish provenance. The first strain the is similar, if not cognate, with "Trumpet Hornpipe (2)," "Lord Nelson's Hornpipe (3)," and the Pennsylvania-collected "MacDonahue's Hornpipe."
