A nice tune. but
A nice tune, but not the same as another reel with the same name. Does anyone know this one under another name?
I could not give the exact key, as I had to choose from a list which didīt have: Bbmajor which is the correct key

This tune is called (so Iīm told anyway) the mountain top, but is propably not recorded by Seamus Tansey, And the piece of sheetmusic that are shown here is not what the ABC`s would show. Hm!.. a bit of a mystery---but a nice tune ( check the ABC)

The Mountain Top
What do you mean? The sheetmusic shows exactly what the ABC's would show.
What are you seeing?

Everything is ok
Thank you Jeremy Everything is ok now. At first another "Mountain Top" was shown as sheetmusic. By the way, I'm very inspired by thessession.org. One of the best sites for irish music

Hmmm. Sort of hornpipish in construction...

This tune is known as The Rosebud Reel in the midwest USA. It can be found under that name and also as The Mountain Ranger Hornpipe in the 19th century Cole's tune collection. Years ago I heard NW Missouri fiddler Cyril Stinnet playing the tune. Is it currently played by any ITM musicians?

The Mountain Top
If it isn't being played by the ITM fraternity then it darn well ought to be! I'm going to take this one on board.

The Mountain Top
I find this goes well with The Dance of the Honeybees.

On Alan and John Kelly's "Fourmilehouse" this tune seems to be played in D on the accordian. Makes the tune more accessible for the flute as well in this key. Great tune!

Known as The Quilty
Around North Clare it's called The Quilty H.P. and it's played in D. But nobody around here plays in Bb- at least not in sessions with instruments other than fiddles.
