Nellie Your Favour I'm Afraid I'll Not Gain
Nellie Your Favour I'm Afraid I'll Not Gain is a traditional hornpipe in 4/4 time set in the D dorian mode, with no verified composer or historical associations on record. The tune moves with the steady, characteristic rhythm of a hornpipe, making it well suited for traditional dance accompaniment and instrumental performance. Because its exact historical origins and early documentation remain uncertain, its musical character is best appreciated through the lively yet plaintive melodic phrasing typical of D dorian fiddle and flute traditions.
