Thatched Cabin, The
The traditional Irish jig known as The Thatched Cabin was composed by the renowned West Clare fiddle player Junior Crehan. Written in six-eight meter and set in the D dorian mode, the tune exhibits the lively and ornamented character typical of traditional Munster fiddling. Because specific early historical associations for the piece are not well documented, its legacy endures primarily through modern session playing and regional preservation efforts.
