Hand Me Down The Tickle

Jig · 6/8 · D major

Hand Me Down The Tickle is a traditional Irish double jig in 6/8 meter that is usually played in the key of D major. Because its exact composer and early historical origins remain undocumented, the tune is preserved and passed down primarily through oral tradition and modern session playing. Musically, it features a lively and bouncing character that invites energetic foot-tapping and nimble fingerwork on traditional instruments like the fiddle or flute.
