Rolling Waves, The

Jig · 6/8 · D major

The Rolling Waves is a traditional Irish jig set in the key of D major with a standard 6/8 meter. Because its specific composer and early history are not reliably recorded, it is preserved primarily through the oral tradition of Irish instrumental music. The tune is characterized by a flowing, wave-like melodic contour that invites a lively yet graceful playing style well suited for social dancing.
