Tune of the Day: The Fardown Farmer

Traditional Irish jig

This Irish jig is taken from Francis O'Neill's celebrated collection Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1903.

The term ‛fardown’ was used in the 19th and 20th centuries, often by Irish-Americans, to describe someone from Ulster, the northernmost province of Ireland.
