Title for this G reel?

Title for this G reel?

I was at a workshop last weekend where Micheál Ó Raghallaigh taught the following tune. He didn't have a name for it -- and, after spending about a half hour searching for it here and elsewhere, neither do I. Anyone?

Unbelievable !!! I transcribed this tune yesterday, and meant to post it today. It's "The Rainbow's End", a composition of flute player Vincent Broderick. Not surprisingly, it goes with the "Crock Of Gold". Do you want to post it "csharpd", or will I ?

There are a lot of great Vincent Broderick tunes that aren't here yet. In the meantime, you can get transcritpions of 68 of his tunes in "Traditional Irish Flute Solos: The Turoe Stone Collection," available from Walton Music Inc. Rainbow's End and Crock of Gold are both in that book.

Cool! Kenny, please post your transcription, which I assume is flute-friendly (no low B's). I'll add mine in the comments.
