MÁIRSEÁIL ALASDROIM [2]. Irish, March or Double Jig. E Minor/G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. From an February, 1862, manuscript written by P. Enright (Áth Trasna, County Cork), in the possession of Maurice O'Keeffe from Kishkeam, County Cork. A note with the tune in the ms. reads: "the jig way." It is related to Roche's "Allistrum's March (1)," O'Neill's "Ollistrum Jig" and Willie Clancy's "Máireseáil Alasdruim (1)" (above). See also "Máirseáil Alasdroim - An Leagan Nua", also from Enright's ms.
