Hi! My attempt at some of my favourite tunes (Slide and three reels. Ok the last one is actually a fling) on fiddle (tuned down) and C whistle. Sorry for all the out-of-tune notes. And yes, the audio sucks.
Hi! My friend Steban and I decided to arrange a few tunes the other day and record them. Here they are! (Video 1of2).
We created a MySpace together, so if ever anyone is interested in booking us for a gig or something here's the link: http://www.myspace.c om/PJandSteban
Tunes:
Green Fields Of Woodford / Tommy Mulhaire's / Custy's
Fair Wind / New Mown Meadow
Some fiddle this time.

Hi! I'm in Galway with Elena from Milan and we met Tom from Wales. Here we played Out on the Ocean and the Lilting Banshee.
On: Bread board & Handle from a Spatula (aka Kitchen-Bodhrán), Flute & eBay-Chinese Anglo Concertina (attempt).
Visit Tom's channel here:

PD: It might be a bit out of sync but I did my best.
Qristina and Quinn Bachand visited me! (I think I already said that).
Here we quickly thought of a set to record, a jig and two reels: The Mist on the Mountain / Brenda Stubbert's / The Otter's Holt.
Still don't have their CD? I do, get it!

I've been lent these Galician bagpipes for one week. For me they're very hard to play, and very loud, I couldn't even hear the others (Nollaigín & my bro), so that's why I couldn't keep the tempo very well.
I know these videos are not good, they have bad sound and worse piper, but we made them to have some fun.. and.. here they are!
This is Ulli from Germany playing this well known Irish slip jig on the harp with me.

NOW we have an account together to make medieval/celtic/folk music videos:

Featuring Nollaigín.
She is learning the tin whistle and is fan of the Corrs so here we play two jigs she learned from them. (And she taught me the second one).
