Walking Ower Da River

Reel · 4/4 · D major

Walking Ower Da River is a traditional Shetland reel in four-four time and D major, though its exact origin and composer are not historically documented. As is typical for instrumental tunes of this northern tradition, it features a lively character and a rhythmic drive well-suited for fiddle performance and dancing. Reliable historical records specific to this tune's creation are lacking, leaving its musical identity defined purely by its enduring presence in the regional fiddle repertoire.
