Mad Mr Macpherson

Jig · 6/8 · A minor

Mad Mr Macpherson is a traditional 6/8 jig set in the key of A minor. Its exact historical origins and composer are not documented, so the tune is best known through its lively and rhythmic melody common in traditional Scottish fiddle and session repertoires. Played with a spirited and bouncing bowing style, this energetic jig offers a characteristic showcase of minor-mode traditional dance music.
