Old Windmill, The

Reel · 4/4 · D major

The reel known as The Old Windmill is a traditional-style Irish tune composed by the button accordion player Mick Mulcahy. Written in 4/4 meter and set in the key of D major, the piece is characterized by a lively and rhythmic drive suited for traditional dance accompaniment. Because specific historical associations and exact composition dates for the tune are not well documented, its background remains rooted in contemporary traditional playing rather than older historical lore.
