Hetty O'Hady

Jig · 6/8 · G major

Hetty O'Hady is a traditional jig in six-eight time set in the key of G major with no historically verified composer or specific early historical associations on record. Because its precise geographical origins and exact historical background remain uncertain, the tune is best known through its lively musical character typical of standard Irish and Celtic dance repertoire. In performance, musicians typically render it with the bouncy rhythm and driving articulation characteristic of traditional six-eight jigs.
