|Tune properties and standard notation

 JACKSON'S ROWLY POWLY. AKA and see "Dunkeld House (1)," "Templehouse Jig (2) (The)." Irish, Jig. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The title is perhaps a nod to the 18th century Irish gentleman-composer Walker "Piper" Jackson, of the townland of Lisdaun, parish of Ballingarry, Aughrim, County Limerick. The tune was first printed as "Jackson's Rowly Powly" in O'Farrell's Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes (vol. II, p. 101), c. 1811, as "Jackson's Rowly Powly," although it is much better known today in Irish music as "Templehouse Jig (2) (The)." Breathnach (1996) also found it as "Apples in Winter" in Clare, "Kiltulla Jig" in Galway, and "Hare on the Mountain (The)" in Tipperary. Goodman printed versions as "Grey Goose (3) (The)" and "Dunkeild House." Goodman's latter title makes the link to the tune's origins, for it is a Scottish jig composed by the great Perthshire fiddler-composer Niel Gow (1727-1807), who titled it "Dunkeld House (1)."
