SHEELA NA GIGG. Irish, English; Slip Jig (9/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABC (Hime). Sheela na Gig is the name of a Celtic fertility goddess. The melody was used in Kane O’Hara’s ballad opera Midas (1764), and it was part of a set of five tunes used for a dance called “Irish Lilt” at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane (also including “Irish Lilt (8),” “Priest and his Boots (1) (The),” “Trip to the Dargle (A)” and “Lango Lee (1)”).
