Keswick Bonny Lasses

Hornpipe · 4/4 · D major

Keswick Bonny Lasses is a traditional English hornpipe from the Lake District region in Cumberland, though its exact composer and specific historical origins remain unrecorded. Set in 4/4 time and the key of D major, the tune features the characteristic dotted rhythms and lively, bouncing gait typical of traditional northern hornpipes. It is well suited for performance on fiddle and accordion, and it remains a popular choice within the traditional folk dance and session repertoires of northern England.
