Sign Of The Spyglass, The

Reel · 4/4 · B minor

The Sign Of The Spyglass, The is a traditional reel in four-four time set in the key of B minor with no verified composer attribution. Because its specific origin and historical associations are not well documented, the tune is best defined by its lively tempo and driving rhythmic character typical of standard Irish dance music. In performance, it is generally played with a bright, articulated fiddle style that emphasizes the steady pulse and modal shifts inherent in the melody.
