Drowsy Maggie

Reel in E-dorian

A classic reel that most players in a session would know. This lively tune modulates from E-dorian to D-major in the B part before resolving back on that E minor chord from the dorian key. Played “slowly” here, this tune is a bit of a technical challenge, particularly the B part which rarely comes up for air.
