Musical Chisholm Household, The

Reel · 4/4 · A dorian

The reel known as The Musical Chisholm Household was composed by the renowned Cape Breton fiddler Jerry Holland. Written in 4/4 meter and set in the key of A dorian, the tune features an energetic and driving character well-suited for traditional Scottish-style fiddling and step dancing. Because the tune is a modern composition by a known master of the genre, it lacks older historical associations and is instead celebrated as a contemporary standard in the Cape Breton repertoire.
