Kathleen O'More

Jig · 6/8 · G major

Kathleen O'More is a traditional Irish tune of uncertain historical origin that is typically played as a lively jig in six-eight meter and G major. Because its exact composer and early history are not definitively established, the tune's background remains largely obscure while its enduring appeal rests on its graceful melodic contour. Traditional musicians generally perform it with a light, rhythmic bounce that suits the standard phrasing of the nineteenth-century Irish dance repertoire.
