Ptarmigan Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 The First of May, or Mayday Hornpipe! . Seems like the right day to post this. 😉 The hornpipe was published around 1826 in Scotland in Anderson's Fifty New Scottish and Irish Reels and Hornpipes under the title 'Lady Harrington's Reel'. The melody was employed as the vehicle for the song "The Little Skillet Pot"/"Colcannon," composed by 78 rpm-era singer and Uilleann Piper Shaun O'Nolan.  Cheers, Dick  2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMON GABRIELOW Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Lovely tune, and nice rural setting to play it in too. I liked the additional accompaniment of two canine musicians also!😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
