TAILOR'S WEDDING, THE (Banis an tàiller). AKA and see "Larry Redican's Jig (1)," "Legacy (2) (The)," "Skiver the Quilt (1)." Scottish, Irish; Jig (6/8 time). G Major ('A' part) & E Minor ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The first strain of "Tailor's Wedding", a jig, and Donegal fiddler John Doherty's hornpipe "Knackers of Navan (The)" are similar in melodic contour and are likely cognate, despite the difference in rhythm. The tune is usually called "The Legacy," especially by County Clare musicians, however it is sometimes named in association with 20th century New York musicians, particularly Larry Redican (fiddle) and Jack Coen (flute). The jig has a history both in Scotland and Ireland. In the first half of the 19th century it was printed in Willian Gunn's bagpipe collection as "The Tailor's Wedding," but a decade later it was published by R.M. Levey as "Skiver the Quilt (1)." The Scottish port-a-beul (mouth music) melody "Fosgail an dorms" is cognate in the first strain.
