Dingle David

Just learned this nice A maj jig from the playing of button accordionist Damien McKee on a Comhaltas clip at: http://comhaltas.ie/music/detail/comhaltaslive_260_3_damien_mckee/

McKee says it’s a composition of concertina player Ciaran O’Grady.

I’ve heard this tune before, so it jumped out at me from the middle of McKee’s set. I like the leaps in bar 4 of the A part and the similar outburst of the high a to f’s in the B part. A happy tune, eh? 🙂
