Hopstores, The

Reel · 4/4 · G major

The reel known as The Hopstores is a well-established traditional-style composition in 4/4 meter set in the key of G major by modern Irish composer Peadar Ó Riada. Because traditional historical associations for this piece are not documented, its background remains centered on its contemporary authorship within the living Irish tradition. It is characterized by a lively, rhythmic drive typical of the reel genre, making it well-suited for spirited traditional instrumental performance.
