Lost Acre, The
The jig known as The Lost Acre is a traditional-style piece composed in 6/8 meter by Edgar Bolton. Written in the key of D minor, the tune features the lively rhythmic drive and expressive phrasing characteristic of standard Anglo-Celtic dance music. Because specific historical associations and regional origins for the piece are not well documented, its character is best appreciated through its engaging modal melody and rhythmic momentum.
