Eagles, The

Waltz · 3/4 · E minor

The traditional waltz known as The Eagles is set in 3/4 time and the key of E minor, though its specific geographic origin and composer remain unknown due to a lack of early historical documentation. Because reliable background information and specific historical associations are scarce, the tune is best defined by its graceful triple-meter rhythm and plaintive melodic character. It is typically performed by folk and traditional musicians in a lively yet expressive style that highlights the haunting qualities of its minor-key arrangement.
