Elsie Marley

Jig · 6/8 · G mixolydian

Elsie Marley is a traditional English jig from the North East of England, set in six-eight time and the G mixolydian mode. Because its precise historical origins and composer are not definitively documented, its exact background remains uncertain. Musically, the tune features a lively, bouncing character well suited to traditional regional dance accompaniment and fiddle playing.
