Tune of the Day: Yesterday Morning
Traditional Irish jig
The earliest known appearance of this jig is in Canon James Goodman's mid-19th-century manuscript, under the Irish title “Air maidin a nae bhí camadan sgéil” (“Yesterday morning there was a rigmarole of a tale”). The tune was subsequently included, with very minor modifications, in both Petrie's and O'Neill's early-20th-century collections.
