TWOPENNY JIG, THE. AKA - "Two-penny Jigg (The)." Irish, Jig (6/8 time). G Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Francis O'Neill's version is identical to that printed in 1842 by Dublin dentist and collector biography:Henry Hudson (1798-1889), notwithstanding that O'Neill obtained it not from The Dublin Magazine, but from a music manuscript given to him by an informant, Phillip J. O'Reilly.
