Abbey Tavern, The

Hornpipe · 4/4 · A major

The Abbey Tavern is a traditional-style hornpipe composed by the contemporary Irish fiddler and piano player Charlie Lennon. Set in 4/4 meter and A major, the tune is played with the characteristic upbeat tempo, dotted rhythms, and swinging articulation typical of Irish hornpipes. Because specific historical associations and exact dates of composition are not widely documented for this piece, its musical character and lively dance rhythm remain its primary defining features.
