Ceòlraidh Gaelic Choir w/ Eliseo Mauas Pinto - The Piper's Maggot/Bonnie Hizzie/Drops of Brandy

Live in Buenos Aires, Argentina, 10/16/2011.featuring with the Ceòlraidh Gaelic Choir's piper and singer Guillermo Santana MacKinlay.

I edited the present video of this Scottish Slip Jig Set from two different takes since the main was lack of the ending, anyway, though in spite of it`s low quality it renders a special golden effect to the final notes of the set!

Tunes:
"Drops of Brandy" and "The Piper's Maggot": both tunes learned from the playing of the Scottish Border Piper Gordon Mooney.
Bonnie HIzzie (Pretty Maid): a bridge tune I composed for the set, as a response to the cause and effect of some Drops of Brandy due to the Piper's Maggot...

Here's the traditional lilt to Drops of Brandy: (Part A is the lilt, Part B is the verses)

Curfá:
Didildí déidildí déidildí
didildí déidildí deam
didildí déidildí déidildí
didildí déidildí deam

Tá nead ag an dreoilín, an dreoilín
tá nead ag an dreoilín sa sceach,
Tá nead ag an dreoilín, an dreoilín
is gearrcaigh ag teacht amach.

Tá nead ag a' fiolar na faille,
tá nead ag an gcaistín cnoic,
tá nead ag an éan is airde
is nead ag an bhfaoilinn dubh.

Téanam go Dairbhre, Dairbhre
téanam go Dairbhre, a Chit,
téanam go Dairbhre, Dairbhre,
is ólfaimid tenny bit.
