A jig? Are you hearing a particular jig? I couldn't hear one I recognised ...

Years ago when YouTube was new I learned Dunmore Lassies from a sitar player. It is not the same clip that comes up when you do a "dunmore lassies sitar" search. That one is a riff on the original tune which is a more recent composition.

Same here, although it swings a lot like the Kesh at first. But that's where it ends.

This borrowing seems to date from no later than 1835.

Seems that stranger (to me) things than suggested in the OP do happen.

Re: Does anyone else........
Apparently Ravi Shankar wrote that particular song around '95 for his daughter who "lived between London and Delhi", and who was born in London. Ravi Shankar was also close to George Harrison. Just thinking of how that phrase might be included.

What the...? That's essentially the same tune I played as a polka for dancers. Can't remember what it's called...david_h wrote: ↑Fri Aug 20, 2021 1:53 pm I was reminded of this discussion by a couple of recent posts over on thesession.org (thanks to their authors)

Rakes of Mallow, it's in the second link.
Not unlikely that it was taken there by the British army.

Re: Does anyone else........
I recall a story of someone who while in Hong Kong came across local outdoor musicians (Chinese trad, one assumes) playing a similarly-sourced tune. Bit of a cognitive dissonance, I can well imagine.

Re: Does anyone else........
Possibly an artistic nod to where Anoushka was born (in a very general sense)? It briefly brings to mind Ireland, and by geographic extension, the British Isles archipelago; ITM came from that landmass and nowhere else, nor is the music confined to Ireland anymore. The idiom is so distinctive that it stands out as sounding "Western" in its way, and it fits perfectly as that raag is identical to our Ionian mode. As for source material, the good Pandit would certainly have been exposed to ITM in London, and like any good musician, probably listened closely.
YMMV.

Ah, of course. A reference to that would be recognized all over the Indian subcontinent: "This is London"
