Farewell To Ireland sheet music

Farewell to Ireland sheet music appears here in three unattributed scores. All three are marked 2/2 at the opening, but they differ in key and length: one opens in D major, while two use a one-sharp signature, one of which is identified as G major. No composer is credited in the listings. Compare key, note count and listed duration when choosing a score, and treat those details as descriptions of individual scores rather than proof of a single definitive version.

What the scores have in common

All three Farewell to Ireland scores are listed without a composer and share an opening 2/2 time signature. Beyond those shared details, the listings describe individual scores rather than a verified edition or a confirmed original setting.

Choosing by key

One Farewell to Ireland score opens in D major with a two-sharp signature. Two scores use a one-sharp signature, and one of those is identified as G major. A player can use the opening key to select a score that suits their preferred reading, while checking the score itself for any further key details.

Comparing length and note count

The Farewell to Ireland listings differ in note count and duration. One score lists 234 notes and about 128 seconds; the others list 454 and 508 notes, both at about 256 seconds. These figures can help compare the amount of music shown in each score, but they do not establish difficulty, grade or completeness.

Limits of the evidence

No supporting source material is available for the composer, origin, genre, instrumentation or historical background of Farewell to Ireland. The title alone is not enough to confirm whether the piece is a traditional tune, a song or an instrumental composition, so those claims are left unstated rather than inferred from the name.
