Marquis Of Huntly, The

Reel · 4/4 · A major

The Marquis of Huntly is a traditional Scottish reel set in four-four time and the key of A major, though its exact historical origins and composer remain uncertain. Played with the bright energy and driving rhythm characteristic of traditional highland dance music, it is structured to support lively footwork and energetic ensemble performance. Tunes of this regional style were widely circulated in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century fiddling collections, serving as staples for social dancing across Scotland.
