Miss Edwards
Not a reel but another beautiful tune by Carolan. You can certainly hear the Baroque influence on this tune. Carolan was one of the first musicians to incorporate the popular music of his day into the music he was writing and playing. There is a very similar classical piece called 'Gavotte in D' by Handel.
