Slip jig · 9/8 · D major

The traditional-style slip jig titled The Night Before is composed in the key of D major with a 9/8 meter. Composed by Richard Darsie, the tune features the characteristic skipping rhythm and lively, flowing character typical of the slip jig genre. Because broader historical associations for this piece are not widely documented, its performance relies primarily on bringing out its energetic dance movement.
