Time to get your Irish Jig on! Here's a video tutorial on the Jig Picking Pattern and how to use it on the mandolin. Throughout this lesson I'll show you why this pattern is so important to get the right rhythmic feel on these Celtic tunes, we'll work through some jig rhythm exercises, and I'll show you how to play a fun Irish jig called "Father O'Flynn's." PDF transcription for this video is available over on my Patreon page at the link below.

Great playing 👏👏. I learnt that tune from my mother’s lilting, on my Dad’s mandolin 50 years ago, as a song in jig time. It has a chorus that began - Oh Father OFlynn, you’ve a wonderful way with you. All the ould sinners are wishful to pray with you… Just restarted mandolin again and delighted to find this channel.

Great! Just bought a mandolin from Kieron Malloy's Music store in Galway, so this is the perfect song to christen her with. (I am in the south of France--no decent instruments here, not even a good store. At my request, Kieron threw in a few of his favourite mandolin picks and I was surprised to see how very different these are from the picks you discuss on your video on the subject. These are very light weight and either sharp edged or surprisingly small. But they do lend a bright sound to the jig, for instance. While you are in Ireland, could to take a moment to talk to us about their choice of picks, the whys and wherefores of the differences? Eager to hear more.

Great video (as always) I'm a guitar player, now learning mandolin and am really learning a lot from your tutorials. Liking this one as I'm getting back into some traditional music. Also didn't know your family were from Armagh (huge traditional music roots there) I live near Belfast myself. Thanks for all your hard work here.

Agree that DUD is the best pattern for jigs. However, for most Irish sessions that I've been to, the flute and fiddle players play the tunes obnoxiously fast to where DUD isn't practical. I took lessons from an old Irish dude, a very good banjo player, and he told me that for playing at sessions he uses alternating picking for the most part and doesn't get caught up if his pick direction gets reversed.
@jamesh5564
@jamesh5564 8 месяцев назад
Agreed anything over about150bpm really requires alternate picking, especially if it has even faster bursts for the ornaments.

After picking 'up and down' on jig I finally learned this pattern, which I know is the right picking. But being 70 years old, after a while it slowed me. So I had to reluctantly return to the up and down.
@olddogguitar1095

The hardest part is keeping the triplet rhythm while changing strings. Coming from guitar I have a habit of economy picking. Slowing down and focusing. I have only been playing about a week, but love this Irish Jig pattern and sound. Must be due to my ancestry.

This is really useful because I bought the mandolin to learn Irish jigs and Italian classical so the Bluegrass method didn’t really align well. Is there a picking pattern for Italian picking in pieces like Giovanni Giovale’s ‘Amorino’

David. I've been playing Irish jigs since 1990. It is possible to play accents on up strokes.
@DavidBenedictMandolin
@DavidBenedictMandolin 2 года назад
Hey Doug! Yeah, I know there are some different opinions out there, but I think it definitely changes the feel of the music in a positive way when you play jigs DUD DUD. Definitely worth a try if you haven't explored it already!

@bmeistergeneral
@bmeistergeneral 2 года назад
Simple question :-) but, why don't you just emphasise the up stroke on Note 4? That way you can continue using the alternating pick pattern. You don't need to learn a new pattern and it should sound the same. Am I missing something?
@DavidBenedictMandolin
@DavidBenedictMandolin 2 года назад
Good question! I know there are different opinions out there, but I think down strokes will always sound different than ups now matter how you emphasize them. Also, by using the DUD DUD pattern you also get a different 8th note feel which swings the rhythm of the music differently. Try it both ways and see what you think!
@bmeistergeneral
@bmeistergeneral 2 года назад
@@DavidBenedictMandolin Thanks a lot for the reply. What you say makes a lot of sense. I was watching some Irish players I like and they all seem to be using DUDDUD too! I'll have to wave goodbye to alternative picking ;-)
@saoirsecameron
@saoirsecameron Год назад
@@bmeistergeneral there is something to be said for doing something the same way it’s traditionally done, even if you can get similar results doing it differently. Helps you understand the mindset of the people who created the music in the first place. It also helps that it matches the footwork for dancing jig.

Man! That is tough! I’ve always wanted to some Celtic-ish things to my playing but I just tried to accent on the beats using an up and down picking pattern but couldn’t ever get the feeling right. Thanks for this video! How would you do those triplety feeling things in Celtic music?
@DavidBenedictMandolin
@DavidBenedictMandolin 2 года назад
Hey Nathan! Ah thanks so much for watching this, man! Working on a triplet video as we speak--more soon!
@saoirsepaddy
@saoirsepaddy Год назад
I know about down up down down up down jig pattern. Those pickers use down up down up down pattern Don't put the accent on the 4th note that why it doesn't sound like a jig There Book Art of picking book by Jimmy Bruno . There a exercise picking up with a heavy accent on a down beat pattern then going back picking down with accent on a down beat pattern. There another book Mike Marshall's Mandolin Method-The Great Book of Finger Busters. Mike Marshall aways tell people down up down pattern down on the beat. Tony Rice , Gypsy Guitar players & Jimmy Bruno don't follow the rules picking down on the beat they may accent the picking up on the down beat . Like Bruce Lee once said Feel don't think ! Feel the rhythm pick down or up on the down beat one Master both patterns one will never get lost. Good luck my friends
