Round About The Maypole

Jig · 6/8 · G major

Round About The Maypole is a jig in G major composed by the eighteenth-century musician John Baptist Malchair. Because detailed historical associations for the tune are not well documented, its exact performance context beyond its lively compositional style remains uncertain. Written in 6/8 meter, it is typically played with the bright, rhythmic bounce characteristic of eighteenth-century English country dance music.
