At first, I heard this tune played as "P. J. Haye's" in Calico's "Celanova Square," but later I found P. J. himself playing in Mary MacNamara's album.

Lovely tune. I learnt it from the Sliabh Notes recording "Gleantan" , in the key of A. It's also on Breathnach #1 on the key of D.
I decided to tranpose it to G in order to fit it into a set between the Air "Kitty Tyrell" and the reel "Touch me if you dare", both in G.

A variation can be done in second part's last round, changing Bd|e2e (I actually play Bd|e3) by Gfe3

As my setting is slightly different from this one, I include it here. Enjoy.
