Undertow, The
The Undertow is a traditional reel set in 4/4 time and the D mixolydian mode, though its exact geographic origin and composer remain unknown. Characterized by its driving tempo and flowing melodic contour, the tune is well-suited for energetic fiddle and ensemble playing. Because specific historical associations and early publication details are not established, the tune is best appreciated through its vibrant presence in contemporary session repertoires.
