Joe Smallwood's
Composed by the renowned Newfoundland fiddler Emile Benoit, Joe Smallwood's is a lively 4/4 reel set in the key of G major. The tune is characterized by an upbeat, driving rhythm and a joyful, energetic playing style typical of traditional Franco-Newfoundland dance music. While it does not carry a specific historical association outside of Benoit's extensive body of published work, it remains a celebrated staple of eastern Canadian fiddling.
