Gan Ainm

Jig · 6/8 · G major

Gan Ainm is an Irish jig in 6/8 meter and G major, with an uncertain origin and no verified composer. Because the title translates from Irish as without name, the tune is best known as a traditional piece passed down anonymously through generations of players. Its lively character and rhythm make it a vibrant staple in traditional sessions, typically played with the bright articulation characteristic of standard Irish dance music.
