G dorian?
Is this really meant to be in G dorian?

the F is sharp so what key???
# Posted on June 30th 2007 by dinn2
If the F is sharp and the B is natural then it is just G major! - The sheet music will not change now though.

Looks like a version of All Hands Around (O'Neill 1001 #467).

= single reel ~ I suspect...
Note, with the 'agreement' between parts, repetition, it is likely that this is a single reel (16 bars), without repeats, as given in the O'Neill collections, rather than with repeats as a double reel (32 bars), as the notation is given here by dinn2...
# Posted on July 2nd 2007 by ceolachan
Curious that though, the O'Neill take on the tune is more varied than dinn2's, but those differences probably also acount for why it is also played as a double reel...

My teacher learned this in Donegal.Maybe thats why its so different.
# Posted on July 2nd 2007 by dinn2
Not hugely different, but I love those variations...

Here's a link to Jeremy Spencer and Sean Leahy playing it as the third tune of a set
