Hungarian

Reel · 4/4 · D minor

Hungarian is a traditional reel set in four-four time and the key of D minor, with its exact geographic origin and composer remaining historically unverified. The tune features a driving and energetic rhythmic character typical of fiddle repertoire, making it well suited for lively contra dancing. Because detailed historical associations are scarce, musicians approach the piece with an expressive yet direct playing style that highlights its minor-mode melodies.
