Tune of the Day: Finerty's Frolic
Traditional Irish jig
This jig is taken from Francis O'Neill's Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1903. Although this was its first appearance under the title “Finerty's Frolic”, the tune is closely related to “Bliven's Favorite”, which was published 20 years earlier in Ryan's Mammoth Collection.
