Lilac City, The

Jig · 6/8 · G dorian

The jig known as The Lilac City is a modern composition written by flute and whistle player Colin Farrell. Set in the key of G dorian with a 6/8 meter, the tune displays the lyrical yet driving character typical of contemporary Irish traditional compositions. Because it is a recent creation by a known living performer, it does not carry older traditional historical associations or folk provenances.
