Oyster Wife's Rant, The

Reel · 4/4 · A dorian

The reel known as The Oyster Wife's Rant is a traditional Scottish tune composed by Robert Bremner, who published it in his 1757 collection. Written in A dorian with a 4/4 meter, the tune features an upbeat and lively character well-suited for energetic dancing and standard fiddle interpretations. While specific historical associations beyond its eighteenth-century publication remain undocumented, it stands as a notable example of Bremner's influential contributions to Scottish instrumental music.
