Donella Beaton

Jig · 6/8 · A mixolydian

Donella Beaton is a 6/8 jig composed by George Johnstone in the A Mixolydian mode. The tune is traditionally played with a lively and rhythmic bounce characteristic of Scottish fiddle music. Because specific historical associations for the piece are not widely documented, its character is best appreciated through its spirited melodic interplay and energetic dance tempo.
