This jig is very old, and I wasn't able to find a composer for it. It is in Mixolydian mode, the same as Major, but with the seventh note flatted (in D, but with C natural instead of C sharp).

This arrangement shows how the computer can play eighth notes in up to four part harmony in rapid succession.

The instruments portrayed are the basic electronic trinity.

The basic melody is a folk tune that has been in the public domain for perhaps centuries, but this particular electronic arrangement I regard as my own intellectual property and I do not give permission for it to be used in any advertising or in any commercial venture I receive no compensation from.
