Jessie Smith

Hornpipe · 4/4 · G major

Jessie Smith is a traditional Scottish hornpipe in four-four time and the key of G major, though its specific composer and exact historical origins remain unrecorded. The tune is characterized by a lively, rhythmic bounce typical of Scottish instrumental dance music, making it well-suited for both dancers and fiddlers. Because specific historical associations have not been documented, its enduring popularity relies entirely on its engaging melodic structure and standard performance within traditional session repertoires.
