Tune of the Day: New Year's Night

Traditional Irish reel

This Dorian-mode reel, related to the more well-known “Reel of Bogie”, is taken from O'Neill's Waifs and Strays of Gaelic Melody, published in Chicago in 1922. O'Neill remarks that the tune was probably memorized from the wonderful piping of Bernard “Barney” Delaney, a piper from County Offaly.
