Over The Cabot Trail

Jig · 6/8 · A major

Composed by the renowned Cape Breton fiddler Donald Angus Beaton, Over The Cabot Trail is a lively jig set in the key of A major. Driven by a buoyant 6/8 meter, the tune reflects the vibrant traditional fiddling style of Cape Breton Island. Because detailed historical associations for individual regional fiddle tunes are often unrecorded, its musical character remains its primary defining feature.
