Comparing the listed settings

The Byrne's Hornpipe scores shown here all begin with a two-sharp key signature, listed as D major. Their time signatures are not uniform: some scores open in 4/4 and one opens in 2/2. Opening tempos also differ, with 116 BPM and 80 BPM shown on different 4/4 settings. These details can help you compare versions, but they describe individual scores rather than a definitive edition.

Reading the opening markings

Key, time signature and tempo are opening indications. They do not prove that the whole piece stays in D major, keeps the same metre, or should be performed at that tempo throughout. Look at the full notation if those details matter for your playing or practice.

Attribution and instrumentation

The available Byrne's Hornpipe listings do not identify a composer or a specific instrument. The title alone does not establish authorship, origin or intended instrumentation, so do not treat any one score as an authoritative arrangement without checking further.

Common questions

What key is Byrne's Hornpipe in?

The Byrne's Hornpipe scores listed here all show an opening key signature of two sharps, corresponding to D major. That describes the opening key only; a score can change key later, so check the full notation before assuming the whole piece remains in D major.

Is Byrne's Hornpipe in 4/4 or 2/2?

Both time signatures appear among the listed Byrne's Hornpipe scores. Two versions show an opening 4/4 signature, while one shows 2/2. The choice affects how the beat is grouped and counted, so compare the notation rather than assuming a single time signature for the tune.

What tempo is Byrne's Hornpipe played at?

Tempo indications differ among the listed Byrne's Hornpipe scores. One 4/4 version shows an opening tempo of 116 BPM, another 4/4 version shows 80 BPM, and the 2/2 version has no tempo listed. These are opening values for individual scores, not a single authorised tempo for the tune.

Who composed Byrne's Hornpipe?

No composer is identified for Byrne's Hornpipe in the available score listings. Without a verified attribution, the tune should not be assigned to a named composer; the title alone does not establish authorship.

What instrument is Byrne's Hornpipe arranged for?

The Byrne's Hornpipe score listings do not name a specific instrument or arrangement type. Instrumentation is therefore unconfirmed, and the listings cannot establish whether a version is intended for fiddle, flute or another instrument.
