Tri Martolod

Reel · 4/4 · E major

Tri Martolod is a traditional Breton folk song whose exact origin and early history remain uncertain, though it was popularized globally in the 1970s by composer and harpist Alan Stivell. The piece is set in E major with a driving 4/4 meter and a lively, hypnotic character that blends traditional Celtic modal melodies with contemporary arrangements. Stivell's influential modern recording helped spark the Breton music revival of the late twentieth century, transforming the folk tune into an anthem of modern Celtic music.
