about

Jigs

These first two jigs are compositions of Vincent Broderick's that are common to both our families repertoires. Vincent was 'making up' the first tune, whistling it as he walked across the fields to a wake one evening. He kept whistling it once he was at the wake however, resulting in him politely being asked to leave the house, due to his continued whistling.
