Henry MacDermott Roe

Reel · 4/4 · C major

Henry MacDermott Roe is a traditional Irish reel composed in four-four meter by the blind harper Turlough O'Carolan in the key of C major. The tune is typically performed with a lively and rhythmic character suited to the spirited tempo of a standard Irish dance reel. O'Carolan composed the piece in honor of his prominent patron and lifelong friend, Henry MacDermott Roe of Alderford in County Roscommon.
