Back to Jackson's Heigh-Ho (1)


JACKSON'S HEIGH-HO (Hi Ho Sheáin). AKA - "Jackson's Hi-Ho." Irish, Reel. Ireland; County Donegal, Fermanagh, Leitrim. Attributed to the famous Lisduan House, Ballingarry, County Limerick, 18th & 19th century uilleann piper Walker (sometimes given as Walter) Jackson. The tune appears in the Gunn Collection (p. 26) from County Fermanagh, although Brendan Breathnach (who wrote an article about Jackson) states it was also to be found in tradition in County Leitrim. Brian McNamara, who found the tune in the 19th century County Leitrim collection of Alex Sutherland, says it is popular with fiddle players in the south Leitrim area. Mac Aoidh (1994) finds an identical setting to the Gunn in the playing of Donegal fiddler Francie Dearg O'Byrne, and suggests a possible northwestern Irish provenance for the tune (see note for "Jackson's Combs").
