Mrs. Norman MacKeigan

Reel · 4/4 · D major

Mrs. Norman MacKeigan is a D major reel composed by the renowned Cape Breton fiddler and composer Dan R. MacDonald. The tune is played in standard 4/4 meter with a driving, energetic rhythm characteristic of traditional Scottish-derived Cape Breton dance music. Because specific historical associations and the exact date of composition are not widely documented, the piece is best appreciated through its lively melodic contour and idiomatic fiddle phrasing.
