Gan Ainm

Reel · 4/4 · D minor

Gan Ainm is an Irish reel in four-four meter and D minor whose specific composer and exact geographical origin are unknown. Played in a lively and rhythmic style characteristic of traditional dance music, it features the driving pulse and modal phrasing typical of the genre. Because Irish musicians historically used the Gaelic title meaning "without name" to label uncredited pieces in their repertoires, this tune has been preserved across generations entirely through oral tradition.
