Tune of the Day: The Banks of Lough Gowna
Traditional Irish jig
This jig is taken from Francis O'Neill's celebrated collection Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1903.
Lough Gowna (an Irish name meaning “calf lake”) is a lake on the River Erne, located on the border between County Longford and County Cavan in the North-East of the Republic of Ireland.
