Slip jig · 9/8 · D dorian

The Highway To Dublin is a traditional Irish slip jig in nine-eight meter, though its specific composer and historical origins are not recorded. Set in the D dorian mode, the tune features the characteristic lurching and energetic rhythm typical of slip jigs played in sessions. Because detailed historical associations for the melody are lacking, its enduring appeal rests entirely on its lively melodic contour and traditional charm.
