Brickyard, The

Jig · 6/8 · G dorian

The jig known as The Brickyard is a traditional Irish tune composed by the fiddler Joe Liddy, who lived in County Longford. Written in 6/8 meter and the G dorian mode, the piece features an uplifting and rhythmic character typical of midland Irish fiddling. Because specific historical associations and exact composition dates for the tune are not well documented, its enduring popularity relies purely on its lively melodic appeal within traditional sessions.
