Peter Street sheet music

The Peter Street page lists three differently titled scores: “Sweet Peter Street”, a reel credited “after S’gt. J. O’Neill”, and “Peter Street Dance”. Because the titles and opening keys and time signatures differ, the listing does not prove that all three are versions of the same tune. Treat each as a separate score until a reliable musical comparison confirms a relationship.

“Sweet Peter Street” opens in D major with two sharps and 4/4; the reel credited after S’gt. J. O’Neill opens with no sharps or flats and 4/4; “Peter Street Dance” opens in A major with three sharps and 2/4. These details describe only the opening of each score, not the whole piece.

The score titled “Peter Street (reel) 1325” is the one labelled as a reel, and its catalogue credit reads “after S’gt. J. O’Neill”. The other two listed scores are not labelled reels in their titles, so the reel label should not be applied to every Peter Street item.

The credit “after S’gt. J. O’Neill” appears on the reel score, but the listing does not verify J. O’Neill’s full name, the nature of the setting, or whether the score is an original composition or a later version. The abbreviation should be treated as catalogue text rather than a confirmed attribution.

Only “Sweet Peter Street” includes an opening tempo in the listed details, given as 120 BPM. The other two Peter Street scores have key and time-signature information but no tempo value, so tempo cannot be compared across all three from the available details.

Check the score title and credit first, then match the opening key and time signature to the version you need: D major 4/4 for “Sweet Peter Street”, no sharps or flats in 4/4 for the reel, or A major 2/4 for “Peter Street Dance”. The listing does not provide difficulty grades or verified edition information, so those cannot be decided from the page alone.
