I learned Whelan's Jig from the playing of flute player Frank Claudy. It's a subtle and beautiful tune, grounded with many E rolls.
Breandán Breathnach (1912-1985) published "Whelan's Jig" in his (Ceol Rince na h'Éireann--The Dance Music of Ireland, Vol. I), 1963; No. 49, p. 20. Breathnach says that the the 'Whelan' in the title is Tommy Whelan, an east Galway flute player with the old Ballinakill Céilí Band, and a regionally influential musician.
I sourced these notes from: The Traditional Tune Archive contributors, "Annotation:Whelan's Jig," The Traditional Tune Archive, , tunearch.org/w... (accessed July 7, 2024). The Traditional Tune Archive is an incredibly rich resource that also has a discography where you can hear various versions of the tune played.
