Night In Newtown, The

Reel · 4/4 · E dorian

The reel Night in Newtown is an E Dorian composition in 4/4 meter written by the well-known Irish accordion player and composer Sean Ryan. Because the tune is a modern composition by a recognized tradition-bearer, its exact historical associations are tied to the late-twentieth-century revival rather than deep antiquity. It is typically played in a lively, rhythmic style suited for social dancing, featuring the characteristic phrasing and melodic twists found in Ryan's widely performed body of work.
