Sporting Paddy

[Noel Ways]

Hello,

 

Hoping someone can help!  I have looked high and low online for the

music for "Sporting Paddy" (link below) and it is not there

for me to find.  I'm am in the time-consuming process of

trying to put it together myself, but thought that by some

remote chance someone might have a copy.   I think

"Sporting Paddy" will go well on a duet concertina.

 

Many thanks.

The first tune in the set is a march called The Headlands composed by the late great Ronnie Cooper from Shetland (no relation).
