Whelan's

Jig · 6/8 · E dorian

Whelan's is a traditional Irish jig composed by the fiddle player Tommy Whelan in the 6/8 meter. Set in the E dorian mode, it is typically played with a lively and rhythmic character suited for traditional Irish dancing. Because the tune's specific historical associations are largely uncertain, its enduring popularity rests firmly on its engaging melodic structure and widespread adoption in Irish session playing.
