Gan Ainm

Reel · 4/4 · A dorian

Gan Ainm is an Irish reel in 4/4 meter and the A Dorian mode, with both its exact geographic origin and composer remaining completely unknown. The title itself is the Irish Gaelic term for without a name, which is commonly used in traditional Irish music collections for anonymous tunes. Played with the energetic drive and rhythmic lift characteristic of traditional session reels, it is widely performed by musicians today despite its lost historical background.
