Little Harvest Rose, The

Barndance · 4/4 · F major

The barndance known as The Little Harvest Rose was composed by the legendary blind Irish harpist Turlough O'Carolan during the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. Set in F major with a 4/4 meter, the tune is traditionally played with a lively and flowing rhythm characteristic of his celebrated repertoire. Because detailed historical records regarding its exact creation are scarce, the piece is best appreciated through its enduring musical qualities and its prominent place in the Irish traditional canon.
