I Lost My Hat In Cathal

Reel · 4/4 · A mixolydian

I Lost My Hat In Cathal is a modern reel composed by the Scottish fiddler Angus R. Grant. Written in 4/4 meter and set in the key of A mixolydian, the tune features the driving rhythm and energetic character typical of contemporary Scottish fiddle music. Because specific historical associations and detailed origin stories for the piece are not widely documented, its appeal relies entirely on its lively melody and distinctive regional style.
