Jig For Tom King

Jig · 6/8 · D major

Jig For Tom King is a traditional 6/8 jig in the key of D major whose specific composer and detailed historical origins are not currently established in reliable sources. The tune features the characteristic bouncing rhythm and lively melodic contour typical of standard Irish and Celtic dance music played on fiddle, flute, or accordion. Because its exact historical background remains uncertain, it is most commonly enjoyed simply as a vibrant session tune within traditional folk repertoires.
