  • Frame drums are versatile and span many different cultures. Cross-over is a good thing.

  • Great playing Javier. Nice to hear you play again!

  • Es una pena que el audio y la imagen no estén muy bien sincronizados y no se aprecia bien el sonido que produce cada golpe... pero me da ideas para sacarle más partido a mi bodhran...

  • christy moore plays Bodhran with the back of his hand / fingers only.

  • thats definately a remo bodhran. i agree that his playing is more in the arabic style than the irish. really good playing nonetheless.

  • very good playing congrulations...

  • olafur who do you play with as a professional musician?

  • olafur, i did'nt realize that theres a such a long history of bodhran playing in iceland (i've not heard of ANY). in case you didn't realize the bodhran is an irish instrument, the modern (glen velez) style you speak of is; tar like, frame drum techniques applied to a bodhran, which is still good but different.

    you have no idea about me and what modern styles i'm into, and its funny that you would even try to teach me!...what you dont know could fill a book!!!!

  • Thank you! Wonderful!

  • Hi diarmaidok, how do you know that? I would hate to sound as a wanker either. I don't know if I know more about Bodhráin than you, how could I without knowing you? You are probably into Irish Bodhrán playing which I only play badly. But I'm a professional percussionist & framedrummer, I've played Bodhrán for 10 years (mainly with the fingers as the guy in the video), I've performed and recorded with frame drums... I'd just noticed you are not into frame drums and MODERN bodhrán styles.
