Sarah's Mandolin
Sarah's Mandolin is a traditional Irish slide set in the key of B dorian with a bouncy 12/8 meter. Because its specific composer and exact historical origins are not documented, musicians typically approach it with a lively and rhythmic playing style characteristic of the slide tradition. The tune features a playful melodic contour that flows effortlessly across the fretboard, making it a favorite for contra dances and Irish traditional sessions alike.
