Horizon, The

Hornpipe · 4/4 · D major

The hornpipe known as The Horizon is a traditional instrumental tune with an uncertain exact origin and no verified historical composer. Set in the key of D major with a 4/4 meter, it is typically played with the steady, bouncy rhythm and articulated phrasing characteristic of traditional dance music. Because detailed historical associations and early manuscript sources for this specific tune are not reliably documented, its performance relies primarily on contemporary style conventions within the traditional repertoire.
