Babbity Bowster

Jig · 6/8 · D major

Babbity Bowster is a traditional Scottish tune of uncertain historical origin that takes its name from an old-time country dance and courting game. Set in D major as a lively 6/8 jig, it features a brisk, rhythmic character well-suited for spirited folk dancing. Because specific early documentation remains scarce, musicians typically perform it with a vibrant and playful style characteristic of traditional Scottish fiddle music.
