Father Kelly's - Reconciliation - Mountain Road - MacArthur Road @ Glucksman Ireland House, NYU 

This story made my day. :) :) :) Thank you for sharing and so glad you like the video!!

Yup, I can even fall asleep and have during my daughter's drum lessons, while being in the same room.

What a wholesome and joyful memory!

That's one of the best ways a childhood can be. I grew up similar - with my father often playing accordion after supper on the table in the kitchen. (He played many instruments but this was his favourite one.) On the other hand he, my a bit older brother and me were regularly playing small pieces of Mozart, Telemann, Händel, Bach (I'm german) on recorders (I was 5 and had the Alto). Now I'm 62 and have played and still play several instruments for all my lifetime. My big love is the guitar, many different styles from classic to blues to rock to swing to irish folk... But I also play a low D whistle (amongst other flutes, saxophones and much more). I love Irish folk music for many many years from the moment I heared it for the first time because of its energy and joy of life. And this performance here is really brilliant.

I was the same, I remember falling asleep at gigs infront of speakers, playing tag in pub gardens and living on j20s

agreed

How was second?

Hell yea

@@miminekoz she was ok with it for 20 years. Then she told me she needed space. So happens it was the exact height, width and depth of me;)

This set is just brilliant! I didn’t come across this kind of music until my early twenties, when my brother-in-law gave me a Planxty album. It blew my mind. For some strange reason, it took another 20 years before I took up the Irish wooden flute. Been playing it for over 30 years, now. I’ll get good at it, one day.

Grmma

Oh my gosh, thank you so much. This made my day. :)

The fiddlers are great but I keep coming back for the rhythm

Tad to fast, oh they have talent in bucket loads,

me too

Better every time I watch it.

Best Irish tune I've ever stumbled upon.

I think I have too. I have been waiting for them to hit 1 Million views. How I wish I could hear them in person.

Big breath from me while reading this comment from you - THANK YOU, THANK YOU for these words. This makes all the hard work over all the years worth it. I am so glad you like the video and the tunes. :) :)

Just pure Joy isn't it

I'm from Galway. After this Covid we'll head for Poland and dance the East Galway Half-Set. Not as good as the Clare Set though.

Slow downer is my best friend haha. There is a show tomorrow eh? I imagine you noticed that but just in case.

Same here TJ!

This comment made my day. Thank you so much! So glad you enjoy the video!

I'm glad I did that :D I have an irish band here in Argentina, we've been playing for the last year. We are trying to play this same set but we are really struggling trying to learn by ear the last part of Reconciliation. That final phrase going down the scale on part B is a nightmare. Hope you can check our videos :P ru-vid.com/show-UCdJDUcUTugtOgVcCP_NhpAAvideos

@@EmiFolkMusic Oh wow!! That's so cool. Where in Buenos Aires is your session? I was there a few years ago on vacation and loved it. Would love to come back. Do you have an Irish music festivals in the area? Perhaps I can come see about getting a gig! :)

@@CaitlinWarbelow We have the session at La Plata city. You can check it here instagram.com/irish.session.lp/ No, we don't have a festival here, there are not many bands (we are three or four bands in this city). But if you someday comeback you will be very welcomed at the session :D

@@EmiFolkMusic No way! I lived in La Plata for a semester- amazing city.

THANKK YOOOUU!!!

This version would reconcile the Irish nation.

@@dukadarodear2176 I hate to be a party pooper, but "The Reconciliation" is indeed, as most of tunes in A now rooted into Irish tradition, a glorious Scottish reel. Nothing against Irish fiddle, but to me taste Scottish fiddle is far superior both on technique and sensitivity. Cheers.
