@azfender1 Thanks for taking the time to comment - did you spot the 3 other guitar versions of the tune?

[martinmcmutrie]

Great stuff lads. Lovely unfussy version and balance in the two instruments. Now to work it out on my B/C box so I can play along. .

Thanks for the encouragement Martin. I shall watch your Donegal fiddle videos carefully.

Love this duet. Excellent performance.

Good to hear from you again - thanks for the ccmment.

Great job lads.

One of my favourites, of the ancient Irish tunes. My wife & I play this tune often, especially while playing in Medieval costume in Carrickfergus Castle, on Hammered Dulcimer & Harp.

Thanks Ptarmigan - I love your hammered dulcimer version of Carolan's Captain O'Kane - Mike L

[mikesamwild]

Thanks Ptarmi. You know the area he came from I suppose. Didn't he play for the Earl of Antrim?

Cheers

Mike

[Ptarmi]

Yes indeed.

I believe he would have played for the Earl in Glenarm Castle, because we know that in 1745 Glenarm Castle became the principal seat of the Earl of Antrim.

Fortunately Sabine & I have had the opportunity to play this tune & many more, in costume, in both Glenarm Castle & their former stronghold Dunluce Castle, which is sadly only a ruin now.

Very pleasant. Love the grace notes on the 'tina. Nice guitar playing too
