Cry Of The Mountain, The
The traditional reel known as The Cry of the Mountain has an uncertain specific origin, with no verified composer attribution in the historical record. Set in four-four meter and the D mixolydian mode, it is characterized by an energetic and driving musical character well-suited for fast-paced dancing. Because its exact historical background is not established, the tune is best defined by its lively melodic contour and traditional Irish fiddle style performance practice.
