Lamplighter

Slip jig · 9/8 · A mixolydian

The Lamplighter is a traditional Irish slip jig in nine-eighth meter and the A mixolydian mode. Because its specific composer and exact historical origins are not recorded, it is primarily known through traditional performance practice rather than definitive early manuscripts. Musically, it features the characteristic lively, flowing, and tripartite rhythm typical of nineteenth-century dance tunes played on the fiddle or flute.
