Tune of the Day: Jockey's Delight
Traditional English jig
This jig appears to be unique to the third volume of Charles and Samuel Thompson's Compleat Collection of 200 Favourite Country Dances, published in London in 1773. Its original setting is in B-flat major, but we transposed it to E-flat major in order to fit the range of the flute.
