Hempsylph

Reel · 4/4 · A dorian

Hempsylph is a traditional reel in 4/4 meter that is typically played in the key of A dorian. Because its specific historical origins, composer, and regional background are not documented, musicians approach it with standard traditional reel styling and energetic tempo. The tune is characterized by the modal phrasing and rhythmic drive common to traditional instrumental dance music of the British Isles.
