A Celtic Tune

[Bhurczy]

It doesn't matter, how many times do I hear this song... It always makes me fall into deep depression, makes me feel myself sad. Really love this masterpiece, my favourite track of all times.

Thank You, Akin! What was in Your head, when You've wrote this song? Did You say to Yourself, "now, I'm gonna write the most awesome song of the world", or what? :)

[akinun]

@Bhurczy Many thanks for the kind words. It was a difficult time emotionally and it came out as somewhat of a silent cry.

[acharad]

Is this a live recording or e-bow performance recorded as accompanying channel ?

[akinun]

@acharad There are three overdubbed audio-video tracks; all recorded live, then merged on a video editing software

[LukosMelanos]

Beautiful

[hvenbnd]

Your music makes me want to run naked through a forest. Thank you for that feeling. I play the cello. If I picked up this instrument, would I have an advantage?  Anytime you are in California you have a beautiful guest house to stay in so long as you play a song or two a day for me.

[akinun]

@hvenbnd Thank you for the kind words. Chapman Stick and the cello are not very related, other than being stringed. They are both very difficult and deeply gratifying in different ways :)

[ralauchan]

it's my favorite song!

[Nadrojaw]

Man this is so beautiful i listen to it every night when i study :D thank you!

[Akaoshishima]

ware can I down load this

[amsmith1221]

perfect vid comp for this. Haunting, Stirring. Yet soothing....great work!

[TheBabyride]

Beautiful.

[fsharp80]

i play this song every day. i think it is so beautiful

[PVCNX]

I wish I knew how to play this instrument. It sounds so nice, but seems so complicated to learn how to play.

[akinun]

@PVCNX It actually looks more difficult than it is. Not that it is an easy instrument, but it shouldn't discourage you from picking it up and trying :)

[PVCNX]

@akinun

Ha, I doubt that I will ever attempt to try this instrument. I don't have the patience to learn any musical instrument.

[GosnMefistofeles]

I came here thanks to Sungha, and I'm going to stay!

[Mode1989]

Awesome...

I really don't know how 3 people didn't like it...

[Tritone1b5]

Truly inspiring.

[gleb202]

The composition and interpretation are just amazing! It is also amazing the fact that a person who(possibly) has been raised in different musical tradition background,feels so deep the celtic music just like if it was his very native culture.I adore your playing! Keep it up plz

[sapikhh]

awesome

[dickybannon]

one of the best vids ive seen on you tube Amazing!

[PaleRider54]

Absolutely wondrous. I can hardly wait to hear more.

[farkob]

Muhteşem olmuş gerçekten. Ebowu da chapmanı da bu şarkıyla tanıdım.

[Bricked]

This song is awesome.

[Hoeckel13]

I love this song, the use of the Ebow on the Chapman Stick sounds great!

[mysteryeffect]

Great song,great musician...

[DieCastoms]

Maybe a silly question but.. How much of playing that instrument is hammers and pull offs? How hard do you have to hammer to get clear notes? I beg you, post more of your stuff!!!

[Hoeckel13]

Everything is hammered on with the Chapman Stick, it is a tapping instrument. It's surprising how light of a tap can produce clear sounds on an instrument designed to be tapped...

[SRAMVS]

Hey, where could I download this song? I'd just love to have it as an MP3 file.. thanks

[akinun]

Hey, I don't want to publish the mp3 online. Had some bad experiences with that. Sorry :)

[DarenSirboughMusic]

beautiful

[sahanson2007]

helal olsun abiye çok başarılı

 insanı dinlendiriyor bu müzik

[ericofspades]

WOW.

[meptune]

Beautiful piece. Is this exclusively Stick? Are you using the eBow on the Stick or on a guitar?

[akinun]

eBows are on the stick

[reminor]

I think the best -and the only- chapman sticker in Turkey

[philslog1982]

A very beautiful song man, peace from the emerald isle.

[theoya]

super pretty

it'd be awesome if you put up a score of this somewhere

[akinun]

Unfortunately not; though it shouldn't be difficult to play it by ear, the song is pretty easy to play

[Piro42]

o_O are those harmonics that send my speakers into spasms? if so, how's that managed on a stick?

[akinun]

They are the e-bow sounds, if I got what you're asking correctly

[Piro42]

explain that, could ya?

[xxsudxx]

süper ötesi...

[ale991]
