I love this tune. I first heard Danu play it. It is also on the "Boston College Irish Fiddle Festival" CD.

I think it's a fling.

"Joe Bane's Highland" ~ which as usual also works as a single reel

Flings always get played as single reels, but in some cases the melody makes a better fling than a reel, and I'm inclined to think, despite the impresssive flute playing, that this air swings better as a fling...
