Ballyhaunis

Reel · 4/4 · A minor

Ballyhaunis is a traditional Irish reel in four-four time set in the key of A minor, though its specific geographic origins and composer remain unrecorded. Characterized by its lively tempo and driving momentum, the tune features a standard ABA melodic structure well suited for traditional fiddle and flute players. Because historical associations are lacking, musicians typically approach the piece with a standard rhythmic pulse and ornamentation common to classic West of Ireland session tunes.
