Tune of the Day: Castle Donovan

Traditional Irish jig

This tune is taken from Francis O'Neill's 1903 collection Music of Ireland. The title “Castle Donovan” refers to the remains of an Irish tower house in a valley near Drimoleague, County Cork, which was the seat of the Clann Cathail sept of the O'Donovans for a period during the 16th century.
