Munster Buttermilk

Jig · 6/8 · D major

Munster Buttermilk is a traditional Irish jig in six-eight meter and D major whose exact historical origins and composer are not recorded. The tune is characterized by a lively and rhythmic double jig style that makes it popular among traditional musicians for dancing and session playing. Because its early history remains uncertain, players typically interpret the melody with a bright, flowing articulation typical of standard Munster regional traditions.
