Lord Dalhousie

Reel · 4/4 · D major

Lord Dalhousie is a traditional Scottish reel in 4/4 time and the key of D major. Because its exact historical origins and composer are not documented, musicians focus on its lively tempo and bright melodic character typical of nineteenth-century fiddling repertoires. The tune is traditionally played with a strong, rhythmic bow stroke that supports social dancing and highlights its energetic Scottish flavor.
