"The Sligo Chorus", in Gaelic "Claisceadal Sligaig" or "Luinneog Sligig" is an Irish<br> reel in cut time and D Major. The parts are played AB.<br> The tune is a distanced variant of the more well-known<br> "Chorus Jig".<br> Musician and researcher Paul de Grae notes that variants of the first strain occur in<br> "Within a Mile of Dublin",<br> "Jennie Rock the Cradle", "Jacky Latin/Jackie Layton" and<br> "The Four Courts".<br> It was printed in O'Neill's Music of Ireland: 1850 Melodies (1903) and<br> O'Neill's Dance Music of Ireland: 1001 Gems (1907).<br>
