What the scores show

The two full-title scores share an opening key of D major and a 4/4 time signature. The score titled “Durrow” opens in E-flat major; its details do not give an opening time signature. These observations describe individual scores, not a definitive setting of the tune. Check the notation before treating any key or metre as settled.

Choosing a key for playing

If you plan to play with a session or another musician, begin with the opening key and match the group’s setting. If you are practising alone, compare the first bars, range and repeats in the notation rather than assuming that the titles refer to the same setting. The available details do not establish a difficulty level.

Checking the notation

Confirm the clef, key signature, time signature and first phrase directly from the score you choose. Opening-key and time-signature details can help you shortlist a score, but they do not confirm the whole piece’s structure, ornaments, repeats or intended instrumentation.

What remains unverified

One score carries the credit “Irish Tune”, but that is a lead from the score details rather than proof of traditional Irish authorship. The relationship between “Durrow” and the full title is also unconfirmed.
