CASTLE JIG [2]. AKA and see "Gallagher's Jig (2)," "O'Connell's Welcome to Dublin," "Seán Ryan's Jig (1)." Irish, Double Jig. A Dorian (most versions): E Dorian (Harker/Rafferty): B Minor (O'Malley). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composed by Tipperary fiddle player Seán Ryan (d. 1985). It is often played in a set with another Ryan composition, "Nightingale (The)," and together they are called "Seán Ryan's Jigs," though "Seán Ryan's Jig" has also been used as an alternate for both tunes separately.
