Llanthony Abbey

Hornpipe · 4/4 · G major

Llanthony Abbey is a traditional hornpipe in four-four time and G major of uncertain exact origin and historical background. It features the lively rhythm and steady character typical of nineteenth-century British and Irish instrumental dance music. Because historical details regarding its creation and early associations remain obscure, the tune is best defined by its spirited melodic movement and standard instrumental performance style.
