John Doherty's

Barndance · 4/4 · D major

John Doherty's is a traditional Irish barndance in 4/4 time and the key of D major, though its exact origin and composer are not historically documented. As is typical of the genre, it features a lively, rhythmic character well suited for dancing and traditional fiddle playing. The tune is closely associated with the rich fiddle tradition of County Donegal, popularized by its namesake, the legendary traveling fiddler John Doherty.
