Jigs

A clever a cappella medley of three jigs with a rich historical heritage: The Swallow's Tail; Morrison's Jig and The Irish Washerwoman. The fiddle part is split between the two upper voices. The vocal style is known as "diddling" or "lilting" and was developed during a time when Irish music and culture were outlawed by the British - and so, without fiddles or bagpipes to dance to, revelers would sing the instrumental parts.
