  • S 10 E 20 Angus MacKay's Favorite Irish Tune Book
    2026/09/19

    Paddy Keenan: Coppers and Brasses, Johnny's Tune For The Avalon,
    Angus MacKay: Rakes of Kilkenny, Farrell's Pipes, Galloway Tom, Pipers' Maggot, Paddy O'Rafferty, Spanish Waltz,
    O'Farrell: Rakes of Kilkenny, Farrell's Pipes, Galloway Tom, Pipers' Maggot, Paddy O'Rafferty,

    I had a pretty intense time listening to Paddy Keenan's playing and browsing the Gallery on his website:
    https://www.paddykeenan.com/gallery

    All the Tunes on this week's show come from one of O'Farrell's 5 publications or Angus MacKay's 3rd and 4th manuscript, viewable at the National Library of Scotland:
    https://manuscripts.nls.uk/repositories/2/resources/18513

    For O'Farrell's Pocket Companion 1 and 2 you can view them online from the National Libary of Scotland's Website:
    1806ish: O Farrells Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes Vol 1
    https://digital.nls.uk/special-collections-of-printed-music/archive/87779618

    1806ish: O Farrells Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes Vol 2
    https://digital.nls.uk/special-collections-of-printed-music/archive/94566912

    Vol 3 and 4 are available on Ross's Music Page:
    https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/archive/rja14/Papers/ofarrellspc3.pdf
    https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/archive/rja14/Papers/ofarrellspc4.pdf

    Unfortunately O Farrel's Tutor is not available online anywhere except as ABC notation, and presently I'm having a hard time finding that even.
