Absolutely heavenly. You'd think... "What on earth can a bodhran add to a piece like this?" and then it happens about half-way through... Kevin is a master of understatement. Always amazed how the Irish manage to REVEL in playing their very own music. Bliss. Thanks
I believe that is Janet Harbison's Belfast Harp Orchestra. She is doing something really wonderful with these kids. A great harper herself, she once introduced the base melody to Danny Boy as 'The greatest of the Derry airs". She would know.
@kb4me123 its English and French: from Anglo-Norman French brabançon. This was originally an ethnic term for a native of the duchy of Brabant just in case you wern't sure.
Just look at the Chieftains enjoyig themselves, especially Derek Bell on the harp who normally looks like a bank accountant corresponding with his neighbour. But who wouldn´t, in such lovely company? The girls are so beautiful.
OMG that's Janet Harbison!! :D I love herr!! She's the best harp player and teacher and she is soo nice..and The Chieftains offcourse!! they are great! =D

The harp has gone the way of intellect, virtue, and morality, existing rarely if at all. My soul awaits the renewal.

Beautiful!
I remember just some of the lyrics:
"Come along, come along with your booty and your song, to my hide-away.......cause the redcoat is gone"
"And here's one for my King and the other for my Queen..."

Are there eleven harps here? They sound great together. And then there's the extra delight of The Chieftains!
