An Si Bheag, Si Mhor -- Irish Dump
A version of The Lament of the Women in the Battle (Gol na mBan san Ar). In:A Collection of the most Favorite Compositions of Carolan the Celebrated Irish Bard
This set of words for "Sí Bheag, Sí Mhór" was published by the Irish Text Society in The Poems of Carolan (Amhrain Chearbhallain): Imreas mór tháinig eidir na ríoghna, Mar fhíoch a d'fhás ón dá chnoc sí, Mar dúirt an tSídh Mór go mb'fhearr í féin, Faoi dhó go mór ná 'n tSídh Bheag. "Ní raibh tú ariamh chomh uasal linn, I gcéim dár ordaíoch i dtuath ná i gcill; Beir uainn do chaint, níl suairceas ann, Coinnigh do chos is do lámh uainn!" @ An tráth chruinnigh na sluaite bhí an bualadh teann, Ar feadh na machaireacha anonn 's anall; 'S níl aon ariamh dár ghluais ón mbinn Nár chaill a cheann san ár sin. "Parlaidh! Parlaidh! agus fáiltím daoibh, Sin agaibh an námhaid Charn Chlann Aoidh, Ó bhinn Áth Chluain na sluaite díobh, 'S a cháirde grá dhach, bí páirteach!"

Blind Poll = Máire Dhall Blind Mary
Source: J. Clinton – Gems of Ireland: 200 Airs (1841, No. 195, p. 101)
If Carolan did compose the tune, it was probably for another blind harper named Máire Dhall (Blind Mary) who lived in his locality, and whom he undoubtedly knew. Máire Dhall was a professional harper (one of the few women recorded as being in the profession) who taught another blind woman, Rose Mooney, who appeared at the Belfast Harp Meeting of 1792, one of the last gatherings of ancient Irish harpers (Sanger & Kinnaird, Tree of Strings, 1992).

Carolan's Quarrel With The Landlady Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738) O'Sullivan (Carolan: Life and Times of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 190, p. 209.
Carolan's Quarrel With The Landlady
O'Sullivan (Carolan: Life and Times of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 190, p. 209.
The melody is contained in the William Forde manuscript, where it is sourced to the volume by P(atrick) Carey, with the alternate title "The Bold Rover." No set of words has been found to accompany the tune, says O'Sullivan and so the nature of the quarrel with the Landlady (i.e. of a tavern) is unknown. It is possible, continues O'Sullivan, that the woman in question was one Bridget Waldron, described as a "niggardly ale-wife," upon whom O'Carolan composed the following "pungent" epitaph (translated from the Irish and printed by Hardiman in Irish Minstrelsy, 1831): I prithee tombstone, let not Bridget come back whence she came, For she would turn your liquor sour and put your house to shame.' Full many a faultless poet has through her by drought been cursed, Now she's buried, devil plague her-and thirst, thirst, thirst!

O’Sullivan (Carolan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 112, p. 160
Donal O'Sullivan, in his definitive work on the bard could find no incontrovertible evidence of its origin, and concludes it is "rather doubtful" Carolan composed it (although he did note "Donal O'Brien" is "structurally similar" to an air by the harper called "Mrs. O'Rourke").

The words to "Eveleen's Bower" are by Thomas Moore (1779-1852), printed in his Irish Melodies (1808-34) with music set by Sir John Stevenson, and begin: Oh! weep for the hour, When to Eveleen's bower, The Lord of the Valley with false vows came; The moon hid her light, From the heavens that night, And wept behind her clouds o'er the maiden's shame.

Donal O'Sullivan reconstructed the tune in 3/4 time from the Neal's 1726 publication, which he says "misquotes" the tune in common time. Other versions (collected by Bunting's assistant and by Bunting himself from harper Patrick Quinn) are in 3/4 time, but are not as complete as the Neal's tune. Additionally, O'Sullivan used the words set to the tune to help with the adaptation.

Bunting did not attribute the melody to O'Carolan, although Pigot and Hardiman did. Donal O'Sullivan (1958) notes that Hardiman (who is considered reliable) believed "Isabella Burke," "Thomas Burke," and "Planxty Burke" were "composed for a respectable family of that name near Castlebar." No record of the name Isabella appears in O'Carolan's time in any of the genealogies of the major Burke families in the area, and it is not known who she might be.

The melody was first printed in John and William Neale's Collection of the Most Celebrated Irish Tunes (Dublin, newly dated to 1742). O'Sullivan gives that the Betaghs were an old Irish family who had been forced to move from Leinster to Connacht by the Settlement under Cromwell. The tune was composed for James Betagh of Drimhill, who married Fanny Dillon, for whom O'Carolan composed another air. [https://tunearch.org/wiki/Annotation:James_Betagh]

Composed by blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738), according to Chicago flute player and collector Francis O'Neill, apparently relying on the assertion of Hardiman, who maintained that it had been composed by the bard for members of 'the great Cavan family' of O'Reilly. O'Sullivan (1958) included the air in his seminal work on O'Carolan, but concluded that there was no significant evidence that it had been composed by the harper. Collector Edward Bunting (1773-1843), who is the sole printed source, collected the tune from ancient harper Arthur O'Neill, but does not attribute the melody to anyone.

O'Sullivan (Carolan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 134, p. 173.
The tune was almost universally attributed to Rory Dall by the harpers at the Belfast Harp Festival in 1792, who also knew it was Dall's "Port Atholl". O'Sullivan demonstrated that the bard's song celebrates the wedding of Charles O'Donnell, son of Colonel Manus O'Donnell (County Mayo), to Katherine O'More, niece by marriage of Conor O'Reilly of Ballinlough (County Westmeath). By her marriage she became the sister-in-law of Anne MacDermott Roe (Mrs. Anne MacDermott Roe) and Hugh O'Donnell (Hugh O'Donnell). Carolan often used an older tune, to write new words for. An example of this is "Seabhac na hÉirne" ("the Hawk of Ballyshannon") which is a poem to Katherine O'More. It uses the tune "Port Atholl" by Ruaidhri Ó Catháin (c. 1570 - c. 1650).

Collector George Petrie was of the opinion that the air, while not among O'Carolan's best compositions, is nevertheless "scarcely one [that is] more thoroughly Irish in its structure and tone of sentiment. In this, we have no inequalities in the time of the parts; and none of the ambitious, wandering imitations of the Italian gigas, so common in his compositions of that class."

Source: Edward Bunting MS O'Sullivan (Carolan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 48, p. 128.
Miss Featherstone invited the bard to visit her house and admonished him to pray for her at church, and O'Carolan said, "Could I withdraw my Devotion from yourself, I would obey; but I will make the best effort I can. Adieu, adieu." The harper did not make it to church, however, but instead used the time to compose this song for her. [https://tunearch.org/wiki/Annotation:Carolan%27s_Devotion]

Source: O'Farrell - National Irish Music for the Union Pipes (1804) O’Sullivan (Carolan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 187, p. 207
The tune has been attributed by some to blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670–1738), although Donal O'Sullivan (1958) says that it was actually composed by William Connellan , "on the authority of the old harpers." O'Sullivan states that it was a favorite of O'Carolan's and that it may have added his own adaptations. The title "Carolan's Farewell to Music", sometimes applied, is an incorrect one, found with the tune in Thomas Mooney's History of Ireland (Boston, 1846, vol. 1, p. 75) and copied by Francis O'Neill into his Music of Ireland (1903, No. 700). If it was Connellan's air, it belies the story (as told by O'Neill in Irish Minstrels and Musicians, 1913) that the air was the last composition of the ailing, blind, sixty-eight year old Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan, who died March 25th, 1738, soon after he returned to Alderford House, Co. Roscommon, seat of the McDermott Roe family and home of his great patroness Mrs. McDermott Roe. O'Neill states: "Shortly before his death he called for his harp, and with feeble fingers wandering among the strings, he evolved his last composition, the weirdly plaintive wail, 'O'Carolan's Farewell to Music.'"

The last tune composed by blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670–1738). "It was in the spring of 1738 that Carolan felt a weakness coming over him and, foreknowing his death, he made a return to the home of his dearest friend and sponsor, Mrs. MacDermott Roe. It was by now an old, old lady who received him at (the ancestral seat of the MacDermott Roes,) Alderford. Carolan spoke lovingly to her, telling her he was come home to die. Then, calling for his harp, he played this farewell to music. At the close of the tune, he walked upstairs to the bed, where he died a few days later amid the tears and praises of friends and mourned the country round" (Williamson, 1976).

Donal O'Sullivan, in his definitive work on the bard could find no incontrovertible evidence of its origin. He does say it is in the harper's style and may have been composed by him, but the only attribution to Carolan in printed sources is in Francis O'Neill's Music if Ireland (1903), and it not considered reliable. The tune was first published by Holden (1806-7) and Petrie with the "One Bottle More" title, although an earlier printing appears in Bunting under the title "Páidín Mac Ruaidhrí-Paddy MacRory."

Breandán Breathnach (1912-85) obtained the ms. from E. Finnegan, who had it from D. Curtin of Stagmount, Rockchapel, Co Cork. The ms. predates the introduction of quadrille-based polkas and slides that now characterize the music of Sliabh Luachra region, thought to have been introduced n the latter 19th century.

Source: O’Neill – Music of Ireland (1903), No. 657 O’Sullivan (Carloan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 7, p. 106.
The composition has been credited to Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738), for George Brabazon, a young bachelor. Donal O’Sullivan (1958) included this piece in his definitive work on Carolan, but noted there was no definitive evidence for its being composed by the harper. After the Jacobite rebellion "George Brabazon" was re-titled in Scotland "Prince Charlie's Welcome to the Island of Skye" in honor of the Pretender; the first two parts of O'Neill's "George Brabazon" are the first two parts of Glasgow musician James Aird's four-part "Prince Charlie's Welcome" (printed in Selection of Scotch, Irish, English and Foreign Airs, vol. 3).

Other titles: Planxty Irwin, Planxty Erwin, Planxty Truine Composed by blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738) for a patron, Colonel John Irwin (1680-1752) of Tanrego House (situated on Ballysodare Bay, in the townland of Tanrego West), County Sligo. The melody continues to be one of Carolan's most popular compositions today, and has frequently been recorded. Donal O’Sullivan (1958) thought the lively air and song was composed around the year 1713 after Irwin’s return from overseas wars, as O’Carolan’s song to the tune mentions Irwin’s military exploits in Flanders.

Both words and air to this ode of praise to Elizabeth Crofton were composed by the great blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan. O'Sullivan (1983) notes the Croftons were once a Catholic family and originally migrated to Ireland in Elizabethan times. The air (along with “Green Woods of Truigha (The)”) was played by the blind harper Arthur O’Neill (1734-1818) at the first Granard Harp Competition in 1781, a performance which earned him the second prize of eight guineas.

Donal O'Sullivan, in his definitive Carolan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper (1958) declined to list the tune under the "Miss Burke" title, and gave it as "John Kelly," acknowledging in his notes to the air that Bunting called in "Planxty Miss Burke," but that the Belfast collector sometimes made mistakes and O'Sullivan thought this miss-titling was one.

The air appears in Francis O'Neill's section of O'Carolan airs in his Music of Ireland (1903), however, it does not appear in Donal O'Sullivan's definitive Carolan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper (1958) Paul de Grae notes that O'Neill's tune is a duplicate (save for one note) of J.T. Surenne's "Ah! Sheelah thous't my darling", a song whose indicated air is "Nancy Vernon"[1]. The song is by Robert Tahhahill (1774-1810), a Scottish poet and songwriter

The squire, meeting Carolan on horseback, said to him jocosely in Irish, 'Carolan, you ride crooked,' to which the harper, who was exceedingly sensitive in every thing touching his personal appearance, replied, 'I'll pay you for that with a crooked tune.' He accordingly composed this air, which is in truth of such a crabbed, unmanageable nature as almost to defy every rule of composition in the adaptation of a bass.

O'Sullivan (1983) notes that Sir Festus Burke was the 5th baronet of Glinsk, County Galway, who succeeded to the title on the death of his father in 1721 (he was the half-brother of Sir Ulick Burke, for whom O'Carolan composed another piece). Sir Festus married the eldest daughter of the Earl of Clanricard, Lady Laetitia, in 1708, though the union proved barren, and he died around 1730. See also Carolan's air "Lady Laetitia Burke."

This is one of two Carolan tunes under the title “Planxty O’Rourke”in Donal O’Sullivan’s collection. There is also one that is sometimes erroneously given that title - properly "O’Rourke’s Feast", but that tune was not composed in anyone’s honour (which apparently is what a"planxty" is all about).

The Dawning Of The Day
Source: O'Neill - Music of Ireland (1903), No. 643
The air, one of a supposed seven or eight hundred, was reputed to have been composed by Thomas O'Connellan a 17th century harper from County Sligo who spent considerable time in Scotland. O'Neill (1922) says: "O'Connellan flourished in a period when the renown of Irish harpers became a matter of history. After a sojourn of 20 years in Scotland, he returned to his native land in 1689, and died nine years later. As the above setting differs materially from that of Bunting in his second collection issued in 1809, and others much more recent, its introduction among Waifs and Strays may be not without interest to students of Irish musical history." In his 1840 collection Ancient Irish Music, the collector Edward Bunting aslo attributed it to Connellan (p. 70). Others, notably O'Neill in an earlier work, credit the composition of the tune to Turlough O'Carolan, though it is not known by what authority and thus is very much in doubt. However, Donal O'Sullivan notes that Carolan may have joined Connellan's "Dawning of the Day" music to his poem "The Morning Star," written for Dolly MacDonough.

The tune was published in Carolan's lifetime in John and William Neal's Collection of the Most Celebrated Irish Tunes (1724), the earliest appearance in print, where it is given as "Fairy Queen by sigr Carrollini," in 3/4 time. "Fairy Queen" was recorded by the Belfast Northern Star of July 15th, 1792, as having been played in competition by one of ten Irish harp masters at the last great convocation of ancient Irish harpers, the Belfast Harp Festival, held that week. The harper who played it was Arthur O'Neill (1734-1818) of County Tyrone, as indicated in Bunting's notes from the festival (1796), blinded at age two but known as a good harper who became a close friend of Bunting's. Previously O'Neill had played the air (along with "The Green Woods of Truagh") at the second Granard Harp Competition in 1782, a performance which earned him the second prize of six guineas.

Belfast collector Edward Bunting [1] (1773-1843), who identified a number of different variants, variously attributed the tune to Carolan (in his 1796 Ancient Music of Ireland), then later recorded that the "tune is not Carolan's, but was adapted by him from an original melody", and (in a letter) wrote the piece "was not intended by him for words, but as a piece of music for the harp." Bunting apparently thought Carolan adapted the tune from an older air called "Ciste no Stór," to which the harper added two parts.

The composition is included in a section of tunes credited to blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1678–1736) by O'Neill (as both "Little Harvest Rose" and "Morning of Life (The)"), however, it does not appear in Donal O'Sullivan's seminal 1958 volume on the bard, and its attribution to the harper is highly questionable

Collector Edward Bunting, noted O'Sullivan, noted it in 1792 from "an old man at Deel Castle", near Ballina, County Mayo, adding that it was "very ancient, author and date unknown." O'Sullivan believes it is clearly not very ancient, but included it in the collected works of the bard, in deference to Francis O'Neill.
