Ingonish

Jig · 6/8 · D dorian

Ingonish is a traditional 6/8 jig in the D dorian mode, with its exact geographic origin and composer remaining unrecorded. The tune features a lively and rhythmic character well-suited for traditional step dancing and ensemble playing. Because specific historical associations are not documented, musicians typically approach it with standard Cape Breton or Celtic stylistic ornamentation and a steady, driving tempo.
