Theresa Beaton's Jig
This jig is actually in B flat (no B flat on the pull down menu - do the Irish not play in that key?) and was composed by the late great Dan R MacDonald. It would be easier to play if it was transposed to G. I picked it up from a Howie MacDonald CD "WhY2Keilidh" when I was over in Cape Breton in the summer. He follows the jig with two of his own, Stiffen 'em Brenda" (also in B flat -which won't transpose) and "Eddie the Fiddlemaker" (in G dorian). The set provides a good work out on the mandolin.

Errorrs
Yeah, well, that high B flat at the end of the third line (bar 4 of B part) should be an octave lower and I forgot to naturalise the first E in the first repeat of the B part. Abc's have been corrected.
