Cordal, The

Jig · 6/8 · D major

The Cordal is a traditional Irish double jig set in six-eight meter and the key of D major. Because its specific composer and historical origins are not documented, musicians treat it as an anonymous piece from the traditional repertoire. It is typically played with a lively, rhythmic bounce that highlights the characteristic triplet-like phrasing of standard Irish dance music.
