Sunflower Schottische, The

Barndance · 4/4 · D major

Set in the key of D major with a 4/4 meter typical of the barndance genre, it features a lively, upbeat character well suited for social dancing. Because specific historical associations and composer details are not reliably documented, musicians typically interpret the tune using regional stylistic conventions appropriate for traditional fiddle and accordion repertoires.
