Newcastle, The
The Newcastle is a traditional-style hornpipe composed in four-four meter by the notable nineteenth-century musician James Hill. Set in the key of G minor, the tune features a lively and rhythmic character suited for energetic dancing and instrumental performance. Although specific historical associations beyond Hill's authorship are not firmly established, the piece remains a well-known part of the traditional fiddle repertoire.
