TWOPENNY JIG, THE (Port na-da-pingine). AKA - "Two-penny Jigg (The)." Irish, Double Jig (6/8 time). G Dorian (Dublin Magazine, Haverty, Kerr, O'Neill/1001 & Krassen): G Minor (O'Neill/1850 & 1915). Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'B (Dublin Magazine, Haverty, O'Neill/1915): AA'BB (Kerr): AA'BB' (O'Neill/1001, 1850 & Krassen). Dublin dentist and collector biography:Henry Hudson (1798-1889) remarked in the Dublin Magazine:
A merry pipe-tune, for which we are indebted to Paddy Coneely. One of its many rustic names
may be said to be “The Two-penny Jig.” When we see a tune genuinely belonging to this class,
we always desire to have a drone in the bass, even when arranging it for the piano-forte.
Notwithstanding that O'Neill's tune is identical to Hudson's in every way, O'Neill obtained it from a music manuscript collection given to him by Phillp O'Reilly, a native of County Cavan.
