Back to Moll Rooney's Pig
MOLL ROONEY'S PIG. Irish, Jig (6/8 time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBC. Dr. Hudson's note to the tune in The Dublin Magazine goes:
We told you that Paddy Conneely was a merry fellow; a fellow of infinite fun as well as jest-- of mos excellent memory as well as fancy. If his heart be sad for a while, it will soon be jovial again. Mirth is its general characteristic. The first tune he desired us to take down from his playing was "Moll Rooney's Pig." We took the pig in a poke, and here it is for you, ladies and gentlemen, a right merry pig--a lively fellow--a funny creature.
Nobody can account for the two bars in the middle of the third part, which echo the conclusion of the second part, and lead to the rallentando at the end of the third, whence the air returns to its commencement. If the pig jumped the field gate, and swallowed two of the bars,--would that do it? They would be int he middle! Follow it not on; it is a vile jest. Drop it. The tune is better. Try it.
