Ballyea

Jig · 6/8 · G mixolydian

Ballyea is a modern jig composed by Quentin Cooper in the 6/8 meter. Set in the G mixolydian mode, the tune has a distinct modal character suited to traditional Irish ensemble playing. Because it is a contemporary composition rather than an older folk tune, it lacks the deep historical associations of traditional repertoire.
