Irish; Hornpipe or Barn Dance. Ireland, County Donegal. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The first strain of "An Comhra Donn" is similar to the Scottish "[[Caledonian March (1)]]" and the English "[[Bonaparte Crossing the Rhine (1)]]."  The alternate title "O'Connor Donn's" is a corruption (a 'Mondegreen') of the Gaelic title. See also the melodically similar (in the 'A' part) "[[Bonaparte Crossing the Rhine (1)]]," "[[Centenary March (The)]]," "[[Caledonian March]]," as well as the English "[[Durham Rangers]]" family of tunes. The Chieftains have recorded tune twice, first as "An Comhra Donn" on their eponymous 1963 album, and again in 1991 under the title "[[Ó Murchú's Hornpipe]]."
