Japanese, The

Hornpipe · 4/4 · A major

The Japanese is a traditional hornpipe set in the key of A major with a standard 4/4 meter. Because its exact historical origin and composer are not historically documented, it is best known through traditional playing styles rather than specific historical associations. As a hornpipe, it is typically performed with a lively and bouncy character suited for traditional dance accompaniment.
