CASTLE JIG [2]. AKA and see "Gallagher's Jig (2)," "Lonesome Jig (2) (The)," "O'Connell's Welcome to Dublin," "Seán Ryan's Jig (1)." Irish, Double Jig. A Dorian (most versions): E Dorian (Harker/Rafferty): B Minor (O'Malley). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composed by Nenagh, County Tipperary, fiddle and whistle player Seán Ryan (1919-1985). It is often played in a set with another Ryan composition, "Nightingale (6) (The)," and together they are called "Seán Ryan's Jigs," though "Seán Ryan's Jig" has also been used as an alternate for both tunes separately.
