The Irish Traditional Music Archive (ITMA) is committed to providing free, universal access to the rich cultural tradition of Irish music, song and dance. If you’re able, we’d love for you to consider a donation. Any level of support will help us preserve and grow this tradition for future generations.
I find that the 9/8 time, the slip jig, is a lovely way of creating. There’s a lovely beat to it. It welcomes you in and helps you come up with notes. I wanted to get a mood that was not down that way but lowered, and expressive of something that was happening around us.
