Margaret MacLachlan

Jig · 6/8 · D major

Margaret MacLachlan is a traditional Scottish jig in six-eight meter and the key of D major. Because its specific composer and early history are not reliably documented, musicians rely on its characteristic bouncy rhythm and cheerful melodic shape to guide their interpretations. It is commonly performed in Scottish social dance settings and folk sessions with a lively, rhythmic articulation suited to the dance form.
