Haley's Reel

At first glance I thought, this isn't in C it's in Amin or Ddor. Then I had a closer look and of course it's none of them. It's a lovely example of a pentatonic tune (no Fs, no Bs) which lies outside the modal domain (major, minor, dorian, mixolydian etc) in which most tunes reside. So in the absence of a pentatonic designation on the database Cmaj is as good as anything else which has no sharps or flats.

Not Haley's-Hanly's

This tune is associated with Roscommon flute-player Patsy Hanly, and I've only ever heard it called that. Desi has some great tunes on that recording, including a reel called "The Cocktail" which he plays after "Hanly's" . I've been meaning to post it, and will do so.

Molloy Version

I really like this tune, Molloy and Co play it in a different key, under a different name, although they do refer to the Hanly brothers in the sleeve notes. They call it 'The New Line To Loughaun'.

Fun to play up a key..
