Back to O'Neill's Maggot

O'NEILL'S MAGGOT [2]. Irish, Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC. The word 'maggot' in this sense means a thing of small consequence, a plaything, a trifle; from the Italian maggioletta. The tune, however, is a jig-time setting of the reel that goes by the name "Humors of Ballyconnell" or "Captain Rock."
