Dickey's Tune

Jig · 6/8 · G major

Dickey's Tune is a traditional jig in six-eight time set in the key of G major with no historically verified composer or definitive geographical origin on record. Because its exact historical background and early associations remain undocumented, its character is best defined by the lively, bouncing rhythmic drive typical of standard Irish and Celtic dance repertoire. The melody is typically performed with a light, triplet-inflected articulation that suits the spirited movement of social dancers.
