Dorian Way, The

Reel · 4/4 · A dorian

The reel The Dorian Way is a modern composition written in 4/4 meter by the Irish button accordion player and composer Carl Hession. Set in the key of A dorian, the tune features the lively tempo, driving rhythm, and ornate melodic phrasing characteristic of contemporary traditional Irish dance music. Because it was recently composed by a known musician, it lacks the older historical associations of anonymous traditional repertoire while remaining a popular choice in modern Irish sessions.
