The only recommendation I'd like to make is that it sure would be nice for us RU-vid watchers to have a list of the songs for our own musical studies (Please and Thank you very much🙂). Keep your history and music curriculum going strong and true too. Just so you know I play a wee bit of the penny whistle, mostly Irish music but this would be very nice to play on my whistle. This was awesome thank you, Drew another Florida man from the U.S. of A.
The first track comes from Julie's first solo CD, "Mar A Tha Mo Chridhe" - it's track #4, starting with "The Thornton Jig". 5mins 29s - is from the same CD, track #7, starting with "John O'Groats House". 8min 17s - track #10 from the "Dual" CD made with Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh. 12min 20s - track #6, taken from her 2nd CD, "Cuilidh". 16min 03s - back to the first CD - Track #11, starting with Fred Morrison's "Seanaidh's Tune". 19min 40s - I think is track #5 from "Dual", because of the polkas.
Nothing like a good folk song from these beautiful and festive countries! It brings such great memories of happiness, kinship and freedom alike! :] Warms my heart and takes me back to the land of my ancestors. :]
yes and I think we should all send some of this music to Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets....cause theres a guy who will appreciate folk music while he's staring at his Stanley Cup
I have a Burke soprano D. They’re a joy to play. ❤ Enough back pressure if you want to attempt circular breathing. Not too sharp like a Generation. Good fun!! 😊
@@petejury1654 I play that one, it's very popular, but I don't have a name for it - which is true for most tunes I play. There's a great app called TunePal that can hear a tune and find it for you. Best of luck!
@@polkawillneverdie2159 Thank you, but if you check that CD, the tune is called "Traditional Irish Reel" there. I would like to get the actual name of the reel, so I can find a sheet music and learn to play it on my tin whistle :)
Julie is as talented a player as a Gaelic singer, especially accompanied by such a great backup group. Thanks for the wonderful tunes. Hope she comes to Cape Breton soon as I'll be the first in line to attend!
There isn't really such a thing as a 'traditional Scottish tin whistle tune'. It's an Irish instrument really - it was played in Britain, but not taken very seriously. In fact a Scottish music teacher told my son just a couple of years ago that it isn't an instrument at all! In recent years the Scots have just copied the Irish tradition, in this as many other respects.
I mean I think both Scottish and Irish have shared cultural aspects but ya, I automatically thought the tune was Scottish but uh Ive never heard it so I'm unsure but that's what I immediately thought, not the whistle.
I keep coming back to this, once it's out of my head for a couple of months, I snap back to this endless energy boom of a orchestrated tin whistle orgasm
I love this! And I'm from the Irish. Did they wear kilts? Anyone? Anyone reading these words? And , did they wear undies beneath their kilts?.. I want to sing this song, too.
@@brucecollins4729 prior to kilts they wore leine which was the non-pleated precursor to the pleated great kilt which is essentially a leine that is pleated, the kilt just being the bottom portion of the leine that is pleated or a truncated version of the great kilt. they've been wearing tartan clothing for millennia. To say the irish never wore kilts which is just a fancier styling and shorter cut of something they were already wearing kind of does a disservice to the celtic culture.
@@rytheguy1800 do you think the rest of the world was wearing denim jeans and t-shirts and jeans at that time. irish nationalists adopted the kilt from scotland alang with other scottish culture to distance themselves from the colonial english. prior to the kilt being adopted in ireland in the late 1800 the irish wore the traditional english attire...trousers/hobnailed boots/flat cap and waistcoat.(many irish bands still wear it).
