Caoineadh an Phíobaire

Hi just wondering if anyone has the music to this beautiful slow air can’t get it anywhere, thanks for any help, martin

The slow air Cuimhne An Phíobaire was composed by Seán Potts Senior (tin whistle)

He recorded on a CD Ulster Folk and Transport Museum Archive
http://www.itma.ie/digitallibrary/sound/cuimhne-phiobaire-potts/

Seán Óg Potts plays it on this Andreas Rogge B uilleann pipes on his CD titled Seán Potts

Cuimhne = memory
An Phíobaire = The piper

Cuimhne An Phíobaire = The piper memory.

I have not seen or found any sheet music for this slow air but you can easily pick it up by ear listen to it a few times.

All the best

Ah come on Fergus, if he could do that he wouldn’t have asked.

It is on page 11 of this Dickie Deegan manuscript from
Ross Andersons music page

I swear someone posted an abc on here but I cant find it in a search.

many thanks for the links, great settings for the other tunes on the deegan link as well, cheers!

There is also a transcription in the Walton’s Legends of the Irish Tin Whistle.
