Drive The Golden Spike
Drive The Golden Spike is a contemporary hornpipe composed by Scottish musician Brian McNeill. Written in 4/4 meter and set in the key of B minor, the tune features an energetic and driving rhythm characteristic of modern Celtic instrumental music. It was composed to commemorate the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in North America and reflects the dramatic character of that historical achievement.
