One of the greatest box players ever-in my humble opinion. His version of the Derry Hornpipe just flows effortlessly. The Paulo lends itself incredibly well to his flawless style of playing. Well played Darren.
Without any shadow of a doubt the finest version of this great hornpipe one will hear. Darren's musical craftsmanship is stunning. The use of the lower notes on the right hand and octave playing is so skillful and it blends in seamlessly. As for the reels well what can one say I'm lost for words. One of the all Ireland greats. His accompanist was pretty dam good as well. What's more they no doubt enjoyed that set. Oh and let's not forget the totally brilliant foot tapping !
The first tune, a hornpipe, is such a lovely and lively tune, and SO well played, with style and verve. This clip is one of the best on here. The sort of music to get you out your bed of a morning!
