Donald McLennan's Exercise
Donald McLennan's Exercise is a traditional-style slip jig in 9/8 meter composed by G.S. MacLennan. Set in the key of E Dorian, the tune is characterized by a lively and rhythmic structure well suited for highland bagpipe technique and practice. Because specific historical associations and the exact date of composition are not reliably documented, the piece is best appreciated for its brisk tempo and demanding technical execution.
