Gan Ainm

Reel · 4/4 · D mixolydian

Gan Ainm is an Irish reel in 4/4 time and the D mixolydian mode, with its title translating from the Irish Gaelic for no name. Because specific historical associations and composer details are not recorded for this tune, it is treated as a traditional work passed down anonymously through generations. The piece is typically played in a lively, rhythmic style well suited for dancing, featuring the characteristic modal inflections common to traditional Irish fiddle music.
