Thorp Haywood's Hornpipe
Another tune transcribed by me to abc from my old copy of Kerr's.
Unusual, in that the rhythmic structure doesn't quite follow the stereotyped pattern found in so many other hornpipes. Also unusual in that it is set in C-Maj (modulating into A-Min in the second part).
The tune has a weakness in that it comes back in upon itself. One possibility might be to have two straight "A" at the end of the "B" part, and then play it as AABB.
Those not wishing to play it in C-Maj/A-Min might care to shift it up two semitones, and play it as D-Maj/B-Min.
