Gan Ainm

Reel · 4/4 · A dorian

Gan Ainm is an Irish reel in A dorian and 4/4 meter whose title translates from the Irish Gaelic as without name. Because its specific composer and precise geographic origins are not historically recorded, it survives as a traditional instrumental piece passed down through generations of musicians. The tune is typically played with a lively, rhythmic drive characteristic of traditional session music, emphasizing the modal shifts of the dorian scale.
