Jaws Of Angus, The

Jig · 6/8 · A dorian

The traditional jig known as The Jaws Of Angus is set in A dorian with a standard 6/8 meter, though its exact geographical origin and historical background remain undocumented. Because specific composer and historical data are not established, the tune is best defined purely by its lively musical character and standard session performance style. As an energetic double jig, it features the rhythmic bounce and melodic phrasing typical of traditional Celtic dance music in minor modes.
