Sweep's, The
The traditional hornpipe known as The Sweep's is of uncertain geographic origin and lacks a verified composer attribution. Set in four-four meter and the key of A major, the tune is played with the characteristic bouncy, dotted rhythm typical of traditional dance repertoire. Because specific historical associations and early documentation for this piece are not well established, its performance relies primarily on stylistic conventions preserved within traditional instrumental sessions.
