Ballykeale

Jig · 6/8 · G mixolydian

Ballykeale is a traditional Irish jig with an uncertain exact origin and no verified composer attribution. Set in the G mixolydian mode and a 6/8 meter, it features the bouncy, flowing rhythm typical of dance tunes in this style. Because detailed historical associations for the tune are not firmly established, players focus on its lively character and traditional ornamentation.
