Down The Glen

Hornpipe · 4/4 · D major

Down The Glen is a traditional Irish hornpipe in 4/4 meter and the key of D major, though its specific composer and geographic origin remain unrecorded. The tune features the steady, bouncing rhythm characteristic of traditional hornpipes, making it well-suited for solo fiddle or button accordion performance at a moderate tempo. Because historical records and associations for this specific instrumental piece are lacking, performers typically treat it as a versatile standard within modern session repertoires.
