O'NEILL'S MARCH [2] (Máirseáil Ui Neill). AKA and see "As I Went Out Upon the Ice," "Barrack Hill (1)," "Green Cockade (3) (The)," "Green Cottage Slide (The)," "Green Cottage Polka (2) (The)," "Haughs of Cromdale (The)," "Máirseáil Ui Neill," "Port Dálaig (2)," "Port Dálaig (8)," "Port Sheáin Dan Nell," "Tralee Gaol." Irish, March (2/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody is similar to (and perhaps derived from) the Scottish "Haughs of Cromdale (The). See also the 6/8 setting "Barrack Hill (1)." The "O'Neill's March" title for the tune stems from its being paired in a medley with "O'Neill's March (1)"/"O'Neill's Cavalcade" by Seán Ó Riada on his 1969 Gael Linn LP "O Riada sa Gaiety," on a cut that was called "Marcshlua Uí Néill (O'Neill's Cavalry March)."
