Two Boxes, The

Jig · 6/8 · G major

The Two Boxes is a traditional double jig in 6/8 meter and G major. Because its composer and specific geographic origin are not documented in standard historical sources, it is best known through modern traditional Irish music sessions. The tune is typically played with a lively, rhythmic bounce that suits the fluid ornamentation characteristic of traditional fiddle and flute playing.
