Ballydesmond, The
The Ballydesmond is a traditional Irish polka in 2/4 meter, originating from the Sliabh Luachra region in the southwest of Ireland. Set in A dorian, the tune features the lively, driving rhythm and bright character typical of Munster's distinctive fiddle and accordion tradition. Because its specific composer and exact date of creation are not recorded, it survives as a cherished part of the oral folk music canon frequently played at sessions and set dances.
