High King, The
The traditional-style reel known as The High King was composed by Sean Quinn and is set in G major with a standard 4/4 meter. The tune features a lively and driving character well-suited for energetic contra dance accompaniment and fast-paced traditional instrumental sessions. Because specific historical associations and early publication records for this composition are not widely documented, performers typically focus on its dynamic phrasing and rhythmic lift.
