Gan Ainm

Polka · 2/4 · G major

Gan Ainm is an Irish polka in 2/4 meter and G major, with the title translating from Irish as nameless. Because the tune has no known composer or historical association, its precise origin is uncertain, but it is a lively and standard part of the traditional session repertoire. Musicians typically play it with a brisk, bouncy articulation characteristic of the West Kerry polka style to suit social dancing.
