MR. MORTHLAND’S. AKA - "Mr. Northland Reel." AKA and see "Mrs. Morthland." Scottish, Reel. G Minor/Dorian (Gow, Köhler): A Minor/Dorian (Anderson) . Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The key is printed in the minor key, although the reel can be effectively rendered in the dorian mode, as there is no 6th of the scale in the tune.
