What remains unconfirmed

The available scores do not identify a composer, historical source, dance type or instrumentation for Moll In the Wad. A credit to O'Neill's 1850 appears on one score, but the supplied material does not verify that attribution, so it should be checked against the score or a reliable edition.

Common questions

What kind of piece is Moll In the Wad?

Moll In the Wad is presented in the available scores as a traditional folk tune. The records do not establish a named composer, origin or date, so the title is best treated as a traditional tune label rather than a securely attributed composition.

What time signature is Moll In the Wad written in?

Every listed score of Moll In the Wad opens in 6/8. That compound metre is often counted in two main beats per bar and is common in folk dance music, though the records do not specify the dance type.

Which key is Moll In the Wad in?

Available Moll In the Wad scores open in either G major, with one sharp, or D major, with two sharps. Because the key differs between versions, check the opening key signature before choosing a copy for your instrument or voice.

Is Moll In the Wad a jig?

The score details for Moll In the Wad show 6/8 metre, which is common in jigs, but none of the supplied records names the form as a jig. The dance type should therefore be treated as unconfirmed unless a specific score or reliable edition says otherwise.

How do the available Moll In the Wad versions differ?

The listed Moll In the Wad settings differ in opening key, with G major and D major versions, and in their credits; one is credited to 'Trad. O'Neill's 1850'. Check the actual score for melody, key and any arrangement details rather than assuming all versions are identical.

What should I check before choosing a Moll In the Wad score?

Check the opening key, the 6/8 metre and any credit or arrangement note on the score. Moll In the Wad versions here are not all in the same key, so a copy in G may suit one player while a D version suits another.
