Caledonian, The

Jig · 6/8 · G major

The Caledonian is a traditional six-eight jig in G major of uncertain origin, as its composer and historical background are not documented.

Because specific historical associations are lacking, it is best appreciated for its standard melodic qualities within the traditional jig repertoire.
