Glenside, The

Polka · 2/4 · E dorian

The Glenside is a traditional Irish polka not attributed to a known composer and carries no specific historical association. Played in 2/4 meter with the characteristic lift of the genre, it features the modal coloring of the E dorian scale. Because its exact historical origins remain uncertain, the tune is best known through its continued performance in contemporary Irish traditional music sessions.
