Choosing between the listed versions

The listings for The Sally Gardens are not identical. One score names Voice and Piano as its parts and gives a lyricist credit for W.B. Yeats; two others are single-track versions with no named parts. Check the scoring first if you need a song setting rather than an instrumental line.

Keys differ between scores

Two listings open with two sharps (D major), while the voice-and-piano arrangement opens with five flats. That difference matters for singers and for players who need a comfortable range or a particular key. Use the opening key of the specific score as your starting point rather than assuming one standard key.

Reading the composer and source credits

The composer credits attached to these scores vary: one says Traditional, another says Irish Folk Tune, and a third gives no composer name. These credits describe individual catalogue entries and do not by themselves establish a single author or a full publication history for the song.

Checking tempo and time signature

All three listings give 4/4 as the opening time signature. Only the voice-and-piano arrangement lists an opening tempo, at 66 BPM. If tempo matters for your rehearsal or performance, use the details shown for that particular score and be prepared to set your own tempo where none is given.
