UNION HORNPIPE [2]. AKA and see “Bantry Bay Hornpipe (1)," "Reynardine Hornpipe (2).” Irish, Hornpipe. A Major (Roche): G Major (O’Neill). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The earliest appearance of the tune in print is in Church of Ireland cleric James Goodman’s mid-19th century music manuscripts. Goodman (1828-1896) was an uilleann piper, and an Irish speaker who collected locally in County Cork and elsewhere in Munster. He also obtained tunes from manuscripts and printed collections.
