Little Red Lark, The

Jig · 6/8 · G major

The traditional Irish jig known as The Little Red Lark is in six-eight meter and typically performed in the key of G major. Because its exact composer and early history are not reliably documented, musicians treat it as an anonymous folk melody passed down through oral tradition. The tune features a light, lyrical character well-suited to fluid ornamentation and expressive phrasing on instruments like the tin whistle or fiddle.
