Gift, The

Jig · 6/8 · A major

The traditional jig known as The Gift is a lively 6/8 dance tune set in the key of A major. Because its specific composer and historical origins are not established, the melody is passed down as part of the standard traditional repertoire. Its characteristic rhythmic drive and melodic structure make it well suited for lively contra dance and session settings.
