Copperplate, The

Reel · 4/4 · A dorian

The Copperplate is a traditional Irish reel in four-four meter and the A Dorian mode with an origin and composer that are not historically documented. It is characterized by a lively and rhythmic melodic flow well-suited to the fast pace and articulation typical of traditional fiddle and flute playing. Because its early history remains uncertain, the tune is best known through its widespread adoption in modern Irish traditional music sessions and recordings.
