Crathie Kirk
Crathie Kirk is a traditional Scottish strathspey in four-four meter and D major, with its specific composer and exact historical origins remaining unrecorded. The tune features the characteristic dotted rhythms and snapped notes of the strathspey genre, which demand a bouncy, articulated bowing style from fiddlers. Because specific historical associations for the piece are not well established, musicians typically focus on its lively tempo and regional highland dance character when performing it.
