Easter Day
Easter Day is a 6/8 jig in the key of D major composed by Father P.J. Kelly. Because broader historical documentation regarding its precise date and place of composition is uncertain, the tune's character is best defined by its lively melodic movement typical of traditional Irish dance music. This upbeat fiddle and flute favorite is performed with a spirited bounce that highlights the characteristic triplet rhythms of the traditional jig.
