About this tune
Two distinct reels go by "The Burren." The one in this lesson is the D-major session reel also known as "Charlie Harris's," "Michael Creamer's" (sometimes spelled "Cramer's"), and "The Tinker's Daughter" — De Dannan recorded it as "Charlie Harris's," Conal Ó Grada as "The Tinker's Daughter." The other is a separate reel, notated from the flute player Cathal McConnell in Bulmer and Sharpley's Music from Ireland and related to "Star of Kilkenny."
