Maids Of Ardnaree, The

Reel · 4/4 · D major

The Maids of Ardnaree is a traditional Irish reel in four-four time and D major, with its specific geographic origin and exact composer unrecorded in standard historical sources. Played at a brisk and lively tempo typical of traditional fiddle music, it features the characteristic syncopation and phrasing common to the genre. Because detailed early historical associations for the tune are not well established, its performance history rests primarily on its endurance within the modern traditional Irish repertoire.
