Coleraine, The

Jig · 6/8 · A minor

The Coleraine is a traditional Irish jig set in six-eight meter and the key of A minor, though its exact geographical origin and historical background remain uncertain. The tune features a lively and characteristic triple-meter rhythm that drives its upbeat, danceable character, making it a popular choice among traditional session musicians. Played with a light, bouncy articulation typical of standard jig playing, the melody relies on standard modal shifts that give it an expressive yet grounded folk quality.
