Eastern
Composed by acclaimed Scottish fiddle player Charlie McKerron, Eastern is a lively contemporary reel set in 4/4 time. Written in the E dorian mode, the tune possesses a driving modern Scottish character that demands a precise, energetic bowing style from performers. Because specific historical associations and exact composition dates for the piece are not widely documented, its enduring popularity rests firmly on its engaging melody and frequent inclusion in contemporary Celtic sessions.
