Sheet Music for "The Barony Jig [1]"The Barony Jig [1]Slip JigSource: learned from David KiddDiscography: Cherish the Ladies's CD "The Back Door"Jack and Charlie Coen's LP "The Branch Line"Matt Molloy's "Heathery Breeze" albumNotes: Lorna writes:"The title "Redican's Mother" comes from Jack and Charlie Coen's LP "TheBranch Line." The notes state: "Jack got [the tune] from Larry Redican whohad originally learned it from his mother. Jack met Larry's mother once inDublin in 1960. She was 104 years old at the time and played the tin whistleup to the day she died." You see why Jack might have wanted to call the tuneafter her. It wasn't composed by Larry Redican though. The tune is called"Trealock Lauder" in O'Farrell's Pocket Companion (c.1800) and "The BaronyJig" in the Roche Collection".Transcription: Lorna LaVerne
