Wow...

I heard the exact same thing on my french exchange last week to Lyon...

[BondoFox]

Is there I chance I could find your version of "Star of the County Down" here on YouTube?

[Alubre]

somebody buy that guy a bodhram

[dziemmak]

In fact I played bodhran, but it's sound was not as good as sound of my old-school suitcase.

[momerryweather1]

Is that man playing a suitcase? How fantastic! I love the energy in this performance...

[Vatnafjordur0]

c'est plutôt étonnant et très sympa

[glukez]

Very nice playing, but guys, have you ever heard scottish played or danced by bretons? Listening to Scolvan, Cabestan Hammon Martin will give you a clue if you want to play in traditional way. I wouldn't dream of dancing scottish to you playing. Nice music for listening though.

A French dance played in Poland, but the tune was written by Cliff Stapleton, an Englishman

[dziemmak]

thank you for an information, we didn't know the author of this tune, I thought this was a traditional melody. Best whishes, Pawel

It's called Gloryflower and a version by Cliff Stapelton and Nigel Eaton can be found on Nigel's "Music of the Hurdy Gurdy" (1988). I love this version though!

[dziemmak]

Thanks for information!

[missyismydog1]

umm i thought this was celtic and it means cheers... also u irish dance to it.. i should know cuz i dance

[dunc20]

Yes, slainte does me cheers, most commonly used it scotland...although..the tune its self i find more medieval than irish so i can see why the french style has been used

[roxallanna]

[jilehan]

A French Dance , called Scottish and plaid in Poland !!? :  ) ... Beautiful !

[mydhe]

i play the hurdy gurdy myself, but this is amazing,I LOVE IT!

[Arstel]

Wonderful!

Btw, I like that the background strings sound medieval (in rhythm and tone). The song brings me pleasant visions of ancient feast halls. Thank you!

[madkaffir]

I really love a hurdy gurdy but they're so expensive...but just think of the jamming possibilities!

[mydhe]
