    This is a traditional Irish mazurka, also known as either "Tommy Peoples' Mazurka" or "The Donegal Mazurka". I've used the name for the tune given on the Comhaltas website along with a nice (and rather fast) session recording:

    This arrangement for two melody instruments and rhythm chords is by Michel Van Der Meyren from his website at:

    I've adapted it for mandolins:

    Gibson Ajr mandolin (melody/harmony)
    Ozark tenor guitar (rhythm)

    No doubt Comhaltas wouldn't approve of the harmony, or the rhythm guitar for that matter...
