Comparing key and metre

The three scores of John O'Dwyer Of The Glen differ at the outset. One opens with four sharps and 3/4 time, one opens in D major with 4/4 time and a listed opening tempo of 70 BPM, and one opens with two sharps and 2/2 time. These details are practical selection clues, but the available information does not explain whether the differences reflect transposition, variant settings or editorial choices.

Reading the “1st setting” and “air” title

Only one score carries the title “John O'Dwyer of the Glen” (1st setting) (air). The label distinguishes that score from the other two, but the available information does not explain what the first-setting designation represents historically or whether it points to an original version. Treat “air” as part of that score's title rather than as proof of the piece's full genre history.

Attribution and composer credit

Two scores list no composer credit for John O'Dwyer Of The Glen. The third carries the phrase “after Mr. Enrightslow with expression,” which should not be treated as a confirmed composer attribution without further evidence. The available information does not clarify whether that phrase is a credit, a performance direction, or a mixture of both.

What to check before choosing

Use the opening key, time signature, tempo, title and composer credit to compare the scores, then inspect the notation itself before deciding. The available information does not identify an original instrumentation, date, place of origin, difficulty level or definitive setting for John O'Dwyer Of The Glen.
