Barnacle Bill

Hornpipe · 4/4 · G major

Barnacle Bill is a hornpipe composed by Herbert Ashworth-Hope in the key of G major. Set in a 4/4 meter, the tune features the lively, steady rhythm characteristic of traditional hornpipes and is typically played with a bouncing, upbeat character suited for dancing. While specific historical associations and early performance contexts for the piece are not widely documented, it remains a well-known part of the composed hornpipe repertoire.
