Back to Charlie Mulvihill's Jig (2)
CHARLIE MULVIHILL'S (JIG) [2]. AKA and see "The Kerry Jig [3]," "Whistling Postman [2]." Irish, Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composed by Charlie Mulvihill (1917-1975), a Bronx, New York, born concertina and accordion player who learned much of his music from his father, a concertina player from County Limerick. Inexplicably, the tune sometimes appears as "The Kerry Jig," while whistle player Sean Ryan recorded it as "The Whistling Postman" on his recording "Take the Air." According to Susan Songer (2007), contra dance bands usually play "Charlie Mulvihill's Jig" in the key of 'A'.
