The Piper's Chair (Cathaoir an Phíobáire) is an Irish jig in G Major. It is played as a double jig and as a song air. It was named after the sometimes practice of leaving an empty chair at local musicians' gatherings to represent a noted player who passed away. The Piper’s Chair is also the name of a stone that is a natural chair located in a field in Luogh North, Doolin, County Clare, near the Cliffs of Moher. It is said that in times gone by a piper used to sit and play for tourists. The tune is particularly associated with musicians from the Doolin, County Clare, area. Caoimhin Mac Aoidh remembers that Doolin musician Packie Russell used to be very fond of playing there on warm summer days, and Séamus Ennis collected the tune from the lilting of Paddy Killoughery during a 1948 trip to the area. Tin whistle player Micho Russell had his photograph taken playing while seated on the Piper's Chair (see photographer Jill Freedman, A time that was: Irish moments, 1987). Russell also said that dances were held in the field where the rock was located, with the musician seated on the rock. .
