Splendid. Is it a transatlantic difference that I would say it was more a reel than a hornpipe? As I'm not hearing the "one...TWO three... FOUR"" beat style, but a more fluid run through the notes.
Absolutely, although hornpipes are still common as tunes in Appalachia they are rarely played in the hornpipe style anymore. Almost all tunes in old time fiddling regardless of origin roots are played as reels now.
@@hunterspringsstudio I do think of reels with Appalachian music. I've never been one for knowing tune names (including many I play), so I suppose I never realised they'd have "hornpipe" in the name. Hornpipe rhythms lend themselves well to British clog dancing, but again, Appalachian stepping is a very different beast. More earthed, I always feel.
Excellent
