this is my grand farther michael dunne and yes he did make his own violin he was a truly gifted man whit his hands ... god bless you all and thanks for looking at this video and if any one has any more videos of him PLEASE PLEASE .. POST THEM THANK YOU ALL
Is this the same Michael Dunne who busked around Ireland with his brother Christie Dunne? He looks quite different after a few years of age from his other videos.
I have heard more expensive violins and more correct playing. But I have never heard Danny Boy with more soul. Slow air helps of course. But when he played, I could smell the heather and see the bogs. A hunger is within me for the county.
Beautifully done ... thanks for posting. And I see your 'Late Show' was different than ours. I am in the US and watched the 'Late Show' with Johnny Carson.

Would love to see more of this - ie, the intro by Gay Byrne, the intervening bit and the end of it. Just wondering if you have it to post?

Don't have any more of this clip unfortunately. That's an interesting fiddle he plays in the last half of the clip, did he make his own do you know?
