Hewlett (Turlough O’Carolan)

Of all the tunes attributed to Carolan that are played regularly in sessions, this is my personal favourite. It works very well as a slow reflective tune, but the earliest printed versions suggest it should be much faster. Instructions such as “Vivace” and descriptions such as “lively bacchanalian composition” give a clue! Whatever your preference, enjoy one of Carolan’s classics.
