The Dark Horse Reel
A tune written by Martin Murray. He dedicates it to his father, Paddy Murray, "the greatest horseman I have ever known."
This is a very fun tune which shares a similar structure with The Man From Bundoran.

G naturals, not flats...
I presume?

Geez!
Right... the flatted g would be a g natural, whereas the un-flatted g should be a g sharp. Could be I notated it wrong, but the MIDI playback sounds as it should. I'm just a simple folk musician, what do I know?

All things being =
Thanks! I knew that at one point, and then I didn't. Now I know it again. A mind is a terrible thing.
