Can anyone tell me the name of the tune Paddy Moloney plays on his clip on Seth's website?

I have heard this called The Irish Mazurka. Moloney plays a very fancy version of it. You can probably find an ABC, but it won't be as fancy.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Ah, Sonny Brogan's! Well-loved hereabouts. Found dots/ABCs for it at The Session. Noticed there's a version in G, too; we usually play it in D. :thumbsup:
