MILL, DA. Scottish, March. Scotland, Shetland Islands. A Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Christine Martin (2002) says the tune is a work tune, imitating the sound of a mill, and should be played very freely. The key is usually given as A mixolydian, but the tonality hovers between that and D major.
