Dear Terry, it is so nice to have you back and to see you again. I wish I could give you a big hug and thank you for all of your wishes. This song is very beautiful and it's even more beautiful because you are playing it! Take care, hugs Angela
Many thanks Gary. I have only come back to the accordion recently after years of neglect! Am still struggling but I get a lot of help from youtube friends. Glad you liked it as I also enjoy your videos. Terry.
Nice to have a compliment from a fellow accordionist. Many thanks Chris. I enjoy your tunes too so we all learn from each other! That's the beauty of youtube. Greetings from Ireland. Terry.
I was just thinking of you yesterday and thinking that it would be very nice to hear from you again! Lovely selection and well done, as always, Terry! 5*****
Thank you. Yes, indeed, this song is known as "The Derry Air". In Gaelic (Irish) we call it "Maidin i mBeara". The tune existed long before the words were composed. Greetings, Terry..
Hi Terry, Very nice, I love the sound of your accordion, must be cause it's a Hohner! This brings back many memories of my father as he used to sing this song on occasion and it was always a treat. keep em coming!!! Chris:)
Thanks for the kind comment Nigel. In truth it was a bit rushed so a few bloopers here and there! LOL How come it almost always works out well in practice but when that red light goes on.... Anyway the intention was good. Regards, Terry.
You are very kind Jim! It was done in a bit of a rush so it didn't come out exactly as I wished. The learning goes on Jim! LOL Regards from the West. Terry.
You are most welcome. Glad you liked it. Maybe it was the mistakes I made in this beautiful song that broke your heart! LOL Greetings from Ireland. Terry
Thank you very much for your kind comment Nina. As you can see I play at a very basic level. Since I never had a music teacher or music lesson my technique is very bad. But I enjoy playing and that is the most important thing. If other people like it then that's a lovely bonus for me. Please post more videos. You are a fantastic accordionist. I wish I were half as good! Greetings from Ireland. Terry
@heidihognab Thank you very much for your kind comment.. I appreciate it especially as it comes from the Faroe Island. Can you tell me a little about traditional music on the island? Greetings from Ireland. Terry
