The Independent Hornpipe
April 30th, 2008 at 7:54 pm (traditional irish flute)
This is one I was asked to play. I don’t know whether the version of the first part that goes up to a high ‘C’ is the normal one or whether the more land-based one rules the waves or waves at those who rule the land. I think I heard this tune from a recording of Leo Rowsome who as Rí na bPíobairí ruled over something himself.
If anyone listening is fussy about tune versions then this particular one will probably send them straight to www.vexed.com. Hopefully most other people will either like or ignore as they prefer.
