Minute 5

Reel · 4/4 · E minor

Minute 5 is a traditional reel in four-four time set in the key of E minor, though its specific geographic origin and composer remain unknown. The tune is characterized by a driving rhythm and an energetic, fast-paced character well-suited for energetic contra dancing or instrumental sessions. Because no reliable historical associations or documentation exist for this piece, musicians approach it as a contemporary-style addition to the traditional repertoire.
