Are you referring to the céilí or figure dances known by these names? If so, 'Ar Rinncide Foirne' does not call for any particular tune to be played for either one (ie, "a long dance in reel time"), whereas many of the céilí / figure dances do call for specific tunes (ie, The Three Tunes, Trip to the Cottage, The Sweets of May, The Rakes of Mallow, etc).
Antrim Reel

Does anyone know the name of the first tune in this dance??
Thank you

Re: Antrim Reel
edit: I think it is also the first tune in the Cross Reel dance...
