John Doherty's

Reel · 4/4 · C major

John Doherty's is a traditional Irish reel played in 4/4 meter and C major, though its specific geographic origin and exact historical background are not documented in standard sources. The tune features an uplifting and driving character typical of traditional fiddle music, often performed with the expressive phrasing and rhythmic bowing associated with the Donegal style. Because the composer is not supplied, it is best known through the oral tradition and interpretations of master fiddlers rather than a fixed historical provenance.
