Key/mode?
I'd say this was in Dmix, resolving to D as it does. Reminds me very much of Delahanty's (aka the Wicklow) Hornpipe.

"The Stranger" ~ another name & way for this? ~ D Mixolydian
This was one of those flashes, "Damn, I know this!" ~ and then searching and not being able to find it, except in my head at this moment, but an old favourite it is nice to recall, though I'm still looking to find out where I first met this lovely piece, and to check my memory against the notes or a recording I might find:
T: ? ~ another name ~ ?

We (in Toronto) play this followed by Bunce of Rushes, nice little set. A tune that should be more widely played.
