Flying Weasel, The

Reel · 4/4 · B minor

The reel known as The Flying Weasel is a modern composition in 4/4 meter by fiddler Benoît Volant, originating within contemporary Québécois traditional music circles. Set in the key of B minor, it features an energetic and driving character that requires a lively, articulated bow stroke typical of energetic dance music. Because it is a recent composition, it does not carry older historical associations, instead showcasing the modern evolution of traditional French-Canadian fiddling styles.
