Toss The Feathers

Reel · 4/4 · D mixolydian

Toss the Feathers is a well-known traditional Irish reel played in 4/4 time with a lively, driving character suited for energetic dance accompaniment. Because its exact origin and composer are not historically documented, musicians treat it as a foundational part of the traditional repertoire rather than attributing it to a specific historical figure. The tune is traditionally performed in the D mixolydian mode, often featuring rapid triplets and intricate ornamentations that highlight the technical skill of the player.
