Back to Jack Lintel's Jigg

JACK LINTEL'S JIG. AKA and see "Come Ye Ower Frae France," "Cellar Door (The)," "Cellar Door Key," "Key of the Cellar." English, Triple Hornpipe (3/4 time). England, Northumberland. A Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC. The melody appears in the 1770 music manuscript copybook [1] of William Vickers, a Northumbrian musician about whom unfortunately little is known. Vickers noted the tune in two sharps, although it plays best with no sharps or flats on the fiddle. Matt Seattle comments that pipers may prefer to play the F's sharp. Vickers also noted the tune in 6/8 time, but most of the note groupings are in 3/4 time. Seattle also points out the tune is similar to Vickers' version of "Bob and Joan." With the tune set in A minor, the first part closely resembles the air "Come Ye Ower Frae France."

Source for notated version: Northumbrian musician William Vickers' 1770 music manuscript collection [Seattle].

Printed sources: Seattle (Great Northern/William Vickers), 1987, Part 2; No. 208.
