"A breton tune " played by Tom Doorley (Danu)

"A breton tune " played by Tom Doorley (Danu)

Does anybody knows how this tune is called (except from "breton tune") ?
I've searched for it but didn't find any clues.

There are very few breton tunes which have names, you might never find a name for this one. It's not like in ITM.

As Bran mentioned, Breton dance tunes rarely have names. In terms of tune type/dance this is a kas a barh, but here it is played in a non-dance tempo (much slower).

This tune doesn't have a name like most Breton tunes. Tom is my teacher and he taught me this tune a while ago. It is a nice tune and makes a good technical exercise...
