'Ma' McNulty's Favourite

Hornpipe · 4/4 · E dorian

Ma McNulty's Favourite is a traditional hornpipe in four-four time from an uncertain geographical and historical background. The tune is set in the E dorian mode and exhibits the characteristic rhythm, lilt, and bouncy phrasing typical of traditional Irish hornpipes. Because no composer or specific historical association is reliably documented, players typically approach the melody with a lively, ornamented style suited for traditional dance sessions.
