Mary's Spinning Wheel

Slide · 12/8 · G major

Mary's Spinning Wheel is a traditional Irish slide set in 12/8 meter and G major. Like many tunes of its type, it features a lively and bouncing rhythm that is well suited for accompanying set dancing. Because its specific historical origins and composer are not documented, musicians approach it with a fluid and ornamented playing style typical of traditional regional repertoire.
