Dominick Rooney's
I transcribed this from Mike and Mary Rafferty's playing on The Dangerous Reel cd. Mike's liner notes say he got this tune from Leitrim Co. box player Dominick Rooney. No word on whether Dominick composed it, or is just passing it along.
Good second octave workout on the flute, and I like Mike's use of the cut on the g instead of rolling it (which also works).

Duplicated!
This is "The Old Lark in the Morning": http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display.php/1578 A traditional tune, I believe. Christy Barry recorded it as a part of "Christy Barry's Set and the Connemara jigs."

Good spotting Hiroyuki. I've moved my transcription over to the Lark in Morning comments, so Jeremy can delete this. (I thought it sounded familiar.)
