 HUMORS OF PASSAGE, THE (Sugra na Intaig). Irish, Jig. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Passage West (An Pasáiste Thiar) is a village in County Cork on Cork Harbor on the Atlantic ocean, near Monkstown. It has been a primary spot for sea bathing since the 19th century. The earliest appearance of the tune in print is in Church of Ireland cleric James Goodman's mid-19th century music manuscripts. Goodman (1828-1896) was an uilleann piper, and an Irish speaker who collected locally in County Cork and elsewhere in Munster. He also obtained tunes from manuscripts and printed collections.
