Tune of the Day: Castletown Conners
Traditional Irish jig
This Irish jig, named after a town in County Limerick, is taken from Francis O'Neill's collection The Dance Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1907. O'Neill, who obtained the tune from Limerick fiddler John Carey, remarks that it was at the time “unpublished and new to us”.
