RYAN'S HORNPIPE [1]. Irish, Hornpipe (2/4 time). D Major ('A' part) & B Minor ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune is one of the very few that uilleann piper O'Farrell claims as a composition in his series of volumes, published in London in the first decade of the 19th century. O'Niell's printing (1915) is almost note for note the same as O'Farrell's (save for the ending measure of each part), indicating O'Farrell's volume was his source for the tune.
