Christmas Tree, The
The reel known as The Christmas Tree was composed by the renowned accordion player Paddy O'Brien. Set in four-four time and the G mixolydian mode, the tune features an energetic and lively character typical of traditional Irish dance music. Because specific historical associations and exact dates of composition remain uncertain, players typically interpret the piece with the brisk tempo and ornamented style characteristic of mid-twentieth-century Irish repertoire.
