Maulykeavane Rambler, The

Slide · 12/8 · D major

The traditional Irish slide The Maulykeavane Rambler is played in D major with a lively 12/8 meter characteristic of the Sliabh Luachra regional style. Because its exact composer and early history remain unrecorded, players approach the tune with a driving, bouncy rhythm and characteristic ornamentation typical of Munster fiddle and accordion traditions. This lively dance piece is frequently featured in contemporary sessions among musicians dedicated to preserving the regional phrasing of southwest Ireland.
