Lovely Lough Sheelin

Strathspey · 4/4 · D major

Lovely Lough Sheelin is a traditional-style strathspey in 4/4 time and D major composed by the renowned Irish-American fiddler Ed Reavy. The tune is characterized by a lively, driving rhythm and a lyrical yet robust melodic contour typical of traditional Irish dance music. While exact historical associations tied to its composition are not widely documented, Reavy's body of work is celebrated for capturing the essence of his native County Cavan.
