Tune Notes
- From Wikipedia entry on "The Dawning of the Day": "'The Dawning of the Day' (Irish: Fáinne Geal an Lae) is an old Irish air composed by the blind harpist Thomas Connellan in the 17th Century."
- Commentaries at The Session, however, claim that the song is often considered a march, and as the YouTube clips below make clear, this tune fits that bill.
