This week, by huge coincidence, Between the Jigs and the Reels, gives a nod towards the World Cup football final: Ariel Ramirez (1921-2010) was an Argentine composer. One of his most famous pieces, Misa Criolla was first performed, before a public audience, in Germany.

Join me in a hot and thundery Graz this evening for Ramirez' 'Kyrie-Misa Criolla', the Balfa Brothers and more good music.

“ Between the Jigs and the Reels” – what’s in a name?!

“ Between the jigs and the reels” is an expression in Irish-English to mean “ between one thing and another”.
However and also importantly - in Irish traditional music a ‘jig’ and a ‘reel’ are two types of dances. A jig has three beats in a bar. A reel has four beats in a bar.

Irish culture tip no.1 – the first of many!
