Windmill, The

Reel · 4/4 · D major

The Windmill is a contemporary reel in 4/4 time and D major composed by fiddle player Ciaran Tourish of the traditional band Altan. The tune is characterized by its lively, driving rhythm and intricate phrasing that showcases modern stylistic approaches within traditional Irish music. Because it was recently composed for the modern repertoire, it lacks the older historical associations of traditional folk tunes but is frequently performed in contemporary session settings.
