The Irish Traditional Music Archive (ITMA) is committed to providing free, universal access to the rich cultural tradition of Irish music, song and dance. If you’re able, we’d love for you to consider a donation. Any level of support will help us preserve and grow this tradition for future generations.

An tUasal Mac Taidhg is a reel composed for Brian Montague. An incredible man and friend to so many of us, the Chairperson of ITMA and a fine fiddle player to boot! He grew up in Belfast and I managed to get a few triplets in the second part for him to get him to show off that lovely Belfast style of tight triplet playing!
Note: This tune was published in June 2023 to mark the end of Brian Montague’s time on the ITMA Board.
