Tune of the Day: The Humors of Ayle House

Traditional Irish jig

The earliest known appearance of this jig is found in the large mid-19th century music manuscript collection of County Cork cleric and uilleann piper Canon James Goodman. Various different settings of the tune have since been published, at first mostly in Mixolydian mode (with C-naturals), but with later ones tending more and more to a plain major mode.
