Pam's favourite Irish traditional music

AussiePam · 09-20-2009, 03:24 PM

Would I ever LOVE to be able to play uillean pipes!!!!! In my final year of Irish classes most students wrote their dissertation on something historical or literary. Mine was on uillean pipes... ahhhhhhh

A fantastic musical instrument. Not only can you wail out humanity's angst while sitting on a rock blasted by Atlantic spray, but in the pub you can sing, drink, chat up the talent and play music at the same time...

The King of the Faeries - with a flute played another way, but fabulously

Matt Malloy and James Galway

The Chieftains - Women of Ireland

The Red Admiral Butterfly - done marvellously!!!

I have somewhere the most fantastic version of this. Matt Malloy playing open holed wooden Irish flute with all its awesome breathiness and mellow timbre, with James Galway doing his thing on his golden flute. Best of both worlds - and enough to make any ordinary aspirant to flutery go back to her day job..

Here's an even better version of Port na bPucai !!

But then there's Seamus Ennis - who must be uibhir a haon - number one - when it comes to Uillean pipes.

More fantastic pipes - this time Tiarnan Ó Duinnchinn, and less of the slow air and more of the dancin, bedad!!
