Weeping Willow

Jig · 6/8 · E major

Weeping Willow is a 6/8 jig in E major composed by the Scottish fiddler and pianist Isla Caird, who was active in the early 20th century. The tune features the characteristic skipping rhythm and lively compound meter typical of traditional Scottish jigs, making it well-suited for both dancing and listening. Because detailed historical associations and performance contexts for the piece are not widely documented, its enduring appeal rests primarily on Caird's melodic craftsmanship within the traditional idiom.
