Trying Not To Die
Trying Not To Die is a modern slip jig composed in 9/8 meter and D major, though its specific traditional background and exact historical associations are not widely documented. The tune is characterized by the lively, bounding triple rhythm typical of slip jigs, making it well-suited for fast-paced Irish dance accompaniment. Because specific historical records for this piece are limited, musicians typically approach it with the bright articulation and driving momentum common to contemporary folk session playing.
