While not perfect, this is me playing the popular Irish jig, The Irish Washerwoman, on the great highland bagpipe. A few little fingering mistakes, but this recording was where I kept the tempo the most consistent. On other recordings I sped up quite a bit as the tune progressed (which is really easy to do because this jig is fun to play fast 😊)
Also known as An Bhean Níocháin Éireannach, "The Irish Washerwoman" is a traditional jig that is very commonly played on the fiddle. The origins of this tune are far from clear, and several tunes have been cited as possible ancestors. Although usually considered an Irish tune, some scholars claim that it is English in origin and dates back to the mid-1700's.
