Jig

This medley of three tunes from O'Carolan provides a great concert piece for any time of year. Opening with a march (Planxty George Brabazon) then followed up by a jig, and lastly finishing off in 2/4 with col legno bows and foot stomps. It's a fun medley of authentic music from Ireland's famous harper.
