Grey Owl, The

Reel · 4/4 · D major

The Grey Owl is a traditional Canadian fiddle reel in 4/4 time and the key of D major. Because its specific composer and historical origins are not documented, the tune is best known through its circulation in traditional fiddling repertoires, particularly in Ontario. Played with a lively and rhythmic style characteristic of old-time fiddling, it features an upbeat tempo and bright melodic phrasing well-suited for dancing.
