Transcription: by Darryl D. Bush
In Gaelic "An Fhalaingín Mhuimhneach" it is also
known as "The Munster Cloak" and "The Munster March".
The melody appears as the second half of a tune called
"The Bonny Black Irish Maid" in Cooke's Selection of
Twenty-one Original Irish Airs arranged for Pianoforte,
Violin or Flute (1793).
Recorded by Paddy Moloney and The Chieftans, Michael Flatley,
Finbar Furey and others.
I learned it from Furey's recording.
I play this in a medley with
All in a Garden Green - in the Playford section
Si Bheag, Si Mhor - in the O'Carolan section.
