LESSON 18: UILLEANN PIPE HORNPIPES
Hornpipes are originally an English Dance performed by sailors that spread from there to Ireland and Scotland. In general hornpipes are played at a moderate speed and with a jaunty swing.
Hornpipes are a bit tougher to pick out, as they have differing rhythms, but the key thing to remember is that they all have an emphasis on the first and third part of the musical phrase - ONE two THREE four.
This "swing" makes it a little harder to have a simple phrase to fit in to the timing, but some variations include "Coc-a co-la, coc-a co-la" and "humpty dumpty, humpty dumpty".
