Slip Jigs

Pesky Polska and Out Of Key by David Somerville
Two tunes that stay within a single octave and so do not need any keys when played on the pipes. Pesky Polska is an attempt to write a tune in the style of a Swedish polska. Out Of Key is a jig which deliberately makes quite a lot of use of notes that clash with the drones.

Pesky Polska And Out Of Key

"Over the Wall" and "Up the Tree" by David Somerville - two single octave 4 bar reels.
