YESTERDAY MORNING (Maidin Ande). AKA - "Air Maidin a nae bhí Camadan Sgéil" (Yesterday morning there was a rigmarole of a tale). Irish, Air and Double Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. You already have noted Stanford-Petrie 1116 for this Goodman air, but you might like to refer also to “Yesterday Morning” in ONMI 323, p. 68, and possibly also to “Aodh Ó Ceallaigh” (the poem by Donnchadh Ruadh Mac Con Mara) in An tAthair Pádruig Breathnach, Sídh-Cheól, (Dublin, 1926), vol. 2, pages 118-119 – first line: “Ar maidin i ndé bhí camadáin scéil”, which version of that crooked word has made it to Ó Dónaill’s dictionary, “camadam” failing to find a place in any dictionary I have checked.
