Living Bridge, The

Jig · 6/8 · D major

The Living Bridge is a traditional Irish jig set in the key of D major with a standard 6/8 meter. Because its exact composer and historical origins are not reliably documented, musicians typically perform it with an energetic and rhythmic lilt typical of contemporary session playing. Like many traditional tunes of uncertain provenance, it is widely appreciated for its lively melodic contour and adaptability in group settings.
