Godmother, The

Reel · 4/4 · E major

The Godmother is a traditional 4/4 reel in E major of uncertain exact geographic origin and without a verified composer. It is typically played with a lively, driving rhythm and an energetic character suited for traditional dance accompaniment. Because its early history and specific historical associations are not well documented, musicians focus on its bright melodic contour and rhythmic bounce when performing the tune.
