Back to Monaghan Jig (The)
MONAGHAN {JIG}, THE (Port Muineacain). AKA and see "Clay Pipe," "Cock Up Your Chin Billy." Irish, Scottish; Double Jig. E Minor (O'Neill): E Dorian (Taylor). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC (O'Neill/1850 & 1001, Taylor): AABBCCDD (Carlin, O'Neill/1915 & Krassen). First printed by Nathaniel Gow in his Fifth Collection of Strathspey Reels (Edinburgh, 1809), where it is identified as "Irish," although the fourth part is attributed to "Mr. Sharpe of Hoddam," a gentleman-amateur violinist (see "Mr. Sharpe's Delight" for more on him). The melody was popularized by Irish fiddle master Michael Coleman (1891-1945) with his Columbia recording of October, 1921. Coleman, who recorded the tune early in his career, may have added the fourth part to the three found in Joyce, O'Neill and other 19th century Irish collections. As "Cock Up Your Chin Billy" the tune was collected by County Cork-born John Edward Pigot (1822–1871) and appears in Joyce's Old Irish Folk Music and Songs (1909). See also the related "Scatter the Mud."
Sources for notated versions: from the manuscript collection of retired businessman and Irish music enthusiast John Gillan, collected from musicians in his home county of Longford and the adjoining Leitrim [O'Neill]; "This last strain is by Mr. Sharpe" (Gow).
