Lady's Cloak, The

Jig · 6/8 · D major

The Lady's Cloak is a traditional Irish double jig in six-eight meter and the key of D major. Because its specific composer and exact historical origins are not recorded, it has been passed down through generations within the oral tradition of fiddle and flute players. Played in a lively and rhythmic style typical of traditional session music, it features the characteristic skipping gait and melodic phrasing essential to standard Irish dance accompaniment.
