Marje Tune Req: Jigs in 6 bar Phrases (14) RE: Tune Req: Jigs in 6 bar Phrases 23 Mar 17

There are tunes, though, that exist in several form with different numbers of bars. In fact I think one morris version of Black Joke has an odd extra half bar. "The Three Fishermen" (I think that's its name) is one that sometimes has an 8-bar B, sometimes 12-bar. "Mrs Casey" is another. I suppose they have at some time been adapted to fit a particular dance.
