Breeches Mary

Jig · 6/8 · A dorian

Breeches Mary is a traditional Irish double jig in the key of A dorian, though its exact geographic origin and composer remain unknown. The tune moves at a lively 6/8 meter, featuring a bright, rhythmic character that is well-suited for traditional step dancing. Because early historical references for the piece are scarce, musicians today rely on modern session play to preserve its spirited melodic contour.
