An Dro - tradiční bretaňský lidový tanec. Our recording of the traditional Breton folk dance. WWW: www.elthin.cz Facebook: / elthin.stredoveka.hudba Spotify: spoti.fi/3Tgk5Rm Apple Music: apple.co/3Ga7Q5I Bandcamp: elthin.bandcamp.com/
The song made famous by Carlos Nuñez, actually known in Brittany as "St Patrick's tune". In fact, "an dro" is a dance, not a tune. In Brittany we have many more tunes to accompany this popular traditional dance.
I am just discovering Elthin. Being part Irish and part Slovakian I am so amazed! Your notes I found so interesting. I play Celtic music, the Tin Whistle, and one tune I picked up at a session was a tune from Brittany - "The Wren" which I found to be such a lovely tune. My first "love" was Medieval & Renaissance Music and then Celtic. Whoever you are, you impress me with your knowledge and I thank you for educating me. Be well, and as I tell my friends, "Don't take any wooden nickels,!
Seems to me that a lot of Breton tunes are simply titled as the associated dance, irrespective of whether or not they have another more unique title. I play the Basque txistu, and many Basque tunes are similarly titled. It gets confusing sometimes.
I love that song... When I was younger, I danced folkdances every morning and AnDro was a regular... not easy, the hand movements and the feet... but very energetic!
The most well known Breton An Dro (and variations here) - St Patricks An Dro. In Breton language an dro means to 'go around' literally probably a reference to the processional snaking dance performed to the music at Fez Noz.
L' An dro c'est une danse bretonne originaire de Vannes dans sud de la Bretagne. An dro signifie ronde, elle est encore très populaire lors des fêtes folklorique de cette région. Merci pour le partage ❤
Originaire du Pays de Vannes, et non de la ville de Vannes. Le sud de la Bretagne c'est Nantes et même le pays de Retz, pas le Pays Vannetais. On préfèrera aussi le terme fêtes traditionnelles de Bretagne à "fêtes folkloriques de cette région" qui relègue les festoù-noz et deiz encore bien vivants à des machins de groupes fokloriques de patronnage.
The irish are not celtic. Only in language. The population of Ireland is native to the island. How do you think any meaningful amount of celts would get to the island?
I believe the Irish come from Spain. They were called the Milesians. But there were Viking and Saxon invasions. So really the Irish have a variety of phenotypes and origins like most peoples.
Genial...!!! Gracias por brindarse de manera tan especial, trayendo al presente melodías tan cargadas de emociones y sensaciones, así deslizarnos en un largo viaje como espectadores de otras vidas y otros momentos🌊✨
Great playing - thank you for sharing! BTW I was especially intrigued by how well the bagpipe fits into this because I always have experienced those as very rough and overpowering; nothing that seemed to be combinable with strings.
Very good music, dear author, thanks for your collaboration. It's similar to medieval Celtic on the church. I hope you like it. I'm delighted with everything you've done. Greetings from Spain, thanks.
Diolch o galon! Mae hyn yn swnio'n wych! / Thanks a million! This sounds fantastic! I know that 'an dro' is a Breton folk dance, but the way it's played here reminds my very much of medieval Welsh music. One of the instruments even looks like the tradirional Welsh 'crwth'! May I ask the origin of the group's name? It look's, and sounds, Welsh. Could it be a variation of Elphin, the son of Gwyddno Garanhir, the king of the legendary drowned land of Cantre'r Gwaelod in the Irish Sea?
Báječná skladba i provedení! Ale kde je harfa!? =D Jak už tu bylo napsáno an dro nebo taky hanter dro je druh bretaňskeho tance, ke kterému se hraji různé skladby a shodou okolností jsme se zrovna v letošní letní škole irské hudby učili na harfu jednu skladbu k tomuto tanci. O to víc tohle oceňuji :) Díky za skvělou hudbu. Tomáš
@@Elthinmusic ano určitě :) zní to skvěle jak to je. To já jsem jen nadšený když v českém prostředí kdekoliv vidím folkovou harfu, kterou mám tak rád (vždyť ji taky vyrábím že =D) tak proto jsem hned napsal kde ji máte =D Opravdu báječná hudba, tento typ středověké hudby mám velmi rád a sám jej chci do budoucna více na harfu hrát.. Zatím mám v repertoáru jen Carmen vernale, znáte to? Myslím že je to duchovní skladba 16.stoleti Francie, jistý si nejsem ale mám ji moc rád, taky byste si ji mohli osvojit ;) Tomáš
Spain isn’t a Celtic nation and their blood isn’t more Celtic compared to any western country. Romantic propaganda of the 19th century is quite strong here.
Faun released the song on their 2013 album Von den Elben In 2013 the German group Faun was in the top ten of the German charts ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4QmRL6W7TLE.html
Yes. We started to play this version for fun and during parades. And many people were asking if we have a recording. We always said no, because Faun had and we thought it was pointless to record it. After many requests we started thinking that maybe we could do it. So here it is... 😀
