Why So

Jig · 6/8 · D major

Why So is a contemporary 6/8 jig composed in D major by the Irish musician and scholar Tomás Ó Canainn. The tune features the lively and rhythmic character typical of traditional Irish dance music, making it well suited for lively session playing. Because it is a modern composition rather than an older folk tune, it does not carry historical associations from earlier centuries.
