Rousay

Reel · 4/4 · A dorian

Rousay is a traditional Scottish reel that takes its name from an island in the Orkney archipelago. Played in 4/4 meter within the A dorian mode, the tune features an energetic and rhythmic character well-suited to Highland and island dance traditions. Because its exact composer and historical origins are not documented, musicians approach it with a lively, driving style typical of northern fiddle repertoires.
