Journeyman, The

Jig · 6/8 · D minor

The Journeyman is a contemporary 6/8 jig composed by renowned Irish musician John Doyle in the D minor key. Because it is a modern composition rather than an older piece of traditional folk music, specific historical associations or older provenance are not established. Played with the driving momentum and intricate melodic phrasing typical of modern Irish traditional performance, the tune highlights Doyle's signature guitar accompaniment style translated into a compelling fiddle melody.
