You need a preamp badly
Thanks Gavin, yes, I filmed this 4 years ago when I was early in my journey down the electric violin rabbit hole. I've learned a lot since then!
^^ 잔잔하니 좋네요
감사합니다! 😊
Every single time I hear Rattling Bog it earworms me. Yo ro aaahhhhhh!
I agree! It's one of the catchiest!
😊
I love playing this upbeat tune. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it... It's one of my favorites too! 😊
Omg i cried.... thank you for playing this and doing the intro!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it... Especially the intro, it took some real time and effort to figure out how to "leap"! 😆
@@WendOLynnFiddle you did a great job paying tribute
Thank you so much!
Your bow is so pretty!
Thank you! ❤️ It's a lot of fun, especially around the holidays! 😊
There is nothing more Irish-sounding than a fiddle and concertina played in unison.
Sounds very Irish indeed! Erin go Bragh!
Oh boy... such a hopeful show. i miss it. we could use some hope now.
I agree! Luckily the re-runs are still available to watch on some streaming services, it's fun watching the old episodes!
Wendy I'm going to put you up there with Máiréad Nesbitt, formally of Celtic Woman for playing while dancing. The audience looks to be really enjoying themselves.
Thank you for the kind compliment! Goodness, I wish I had a fraction of her dancing skills! I have no idea how she does it while also playing like a champ, it's truly impressive!
YESS!!! LOVE IT!
Thank you, Andy! I love your enthusiasm and I appreciate your support, it really means a lot to me! 🥰
@@WendOLynnFiddle You're amazing Wendy! I hope this new addition to your repertoire is highly utilized by people! If I were to ever get married again I'd want you there!
Thank you so much! ❤️ I'd be honored to perform for you! 🥰
You should teach more tunes instead of just playing them. Having the notes to follow is good to have. Thanks. Good job showing how to play St Annes reel.
That's a great suggestion, Michael! I haven't tried teaching tunes yet, but I would be willing to give it a try. Are there any specific tunes you would like me to try teaching? I'm glad you enjoyed the notation on this video! :)
OMGG❤
Cooleys Reel ❤
Two good tunes, very well played. For a moment I thought it was in a town near me in the UK, just shows how 'samey' the streets are these days.👏👏
Thank you so much! And you're right, it is funny how many streets look similar - especially the ones where musicians hang out! 😊
Spookily good Wendy 👍
Thanks, Dave! Happy (belated) Halloween!
❤❤❤
It’s so pretty!
Yes! I love the Fall colors. And the people running around in costume! 🍂🎃
OMG ❤❤❤❤❤❤
🥰
I love it so much!
Thank you! 😊❤️
Brilliant, learning with my 9 year old lad. They get the notes written down in letters from lessons. So annoying. No rhythm markings. Very hard to follow. The notation you have in the corner is very handy to follow.
Thanks for the feedback! I've tried a number of different ways of including the notation, never really sure if it is used, so I'm really glad that you found it helpful! Good luck to you and your lad on the learning journey! 😊
Get yer pal to play her bodhran . Share the loot .
Right on Wendy 💚🎶
Thanks, Seth! 😊
You bring so much joy watching you play. Love your cheerful performances Wend 🙂
Thanks so much, Oliver! I appreciate your taking the time to leave such a nice comment!
Will muster some confidence and get my guitarist to back me for a video clip or two ...thanks for the encouragement Wendy ..
Excellent! Remember to have fun, that's what playing tunes is all about! I look forward to seeing your video(s)! 😊
Magnificent - sincere thanks 🙏 ☘️🙋🏻♂️
Thank you for watching, Richard!
Hi Wendy Phill from down under , been jamming with you these tunes , just over a year now on uilleann pipes and starting to sit nicely with tunes although you still kick my ass with your awesomeness hah
Hi Phill, thanks for the comment, I'm happy to hear you're still rocking the tunes! I bet you are awesome, have you ever considered sharing video of your playing the pipes? 😊🎶
Bravo Wendy, great performances as usual. There you are playing your heart out with your big smile and beautiful outfit but I noticed a lot of people walking past didn't even turn their heads to look at you let alone stop to appreciate your tunes and talent. Sadly people are so entrenched in their own little world these days but it's their loss I guess.
Thanks very much, Dave! It can be a little discouraging when people walk right past, but luckily there are many, many people who respond with smiles, thumbs up, and even a little cash in my tip jar! The positive responses really bring me joy and fuel my playing! 💚😊🎻🎶
Beautiful
Thank you! :)
What a nice day for fiddling
Yes, we've had absolutely perfect weather lately... Very lucky! 🌞
Dancing shoes on! Party vibes
Party on, Caroline! 😆
Absolutely beautiful, great example to learn from. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for taking the time to comment, John, I really appreciate your kind words! 😊
😊
I have tried this song on guitar. I have played it fifty times or more. I have yet to play it the same way twice! You played it beautifully and even smiled. Are you keeping concentration by sight reading, muscle memory or what? My devil seems to be interfering thoughts.
Thank you for your kind words, Glenn! I totally understand- It's a tricky one and it does have many, many variations. My strategy for memorization is many, many, MANY repetitions... I start out slowly and gradually boost the speed. I do get distracted, too, and sometimes the tune comes out a little differently, but I try to just stay on course and not derail (which can be a challenge)! Wishing you the best in overcoming those devil thoughts... You can do it!
I really need to hear this today 😢 Thank you for being such a shining Irish lass ans sharing your amazing and wonderful talents with all of us WendÓlynn
You are so kind and sweet, Caroline! I appreciate your uplifting comments and support, and your talent inspires me too! ❤️
🥰🥰🥰lovely! I tried looking for you on TikTok but couldn’t find you ❤
Thank you so much! I don't have a TikTok account yet, but maybe someday... 😀
@@WendOLynnFiddle The Swifties on TT would love you!
That is so sweet.. thank you! I'll definitely have to consider it, Swifties are always so nice to me! 🥰
❤❤❤❤❤
What a great setting for this wonderful tune. Beautifully played !
Thank you so much, Marcia! The setting was absolutely magical, and we were lucky to be there at a beautiful time of day, just before sunset. Can't wait to make a return visit someday!
Love this tune, and I'm enjoying playing along on my whistle, nice tempo! Goes well with Banish Misfortune. 🤩
That's wonderful, I am glad to hear you're playing along! 😊 And great suggestion to pair it with Banish Misfortune, another great tune!
I do love St. Anne's Reel! Two brilliant tunes and it sounds brill! :)
Thank you! I also absolutely love St. Anne's, it's so catchy and bouncy and just fun to play. Always love it when that one pops up in a session!
@@WendOLynnFiddle Yes it is! I must admit I hadn't heard of it until a few months back when someone suggested it for a play along video on my channel, but I've since grown to really love it! :)
Beautiful, I love your playing
Thank you so much! I have a lot to learn, just taking it very slowly... one tune at a time! :)
❤❤❤
So wonderfully light and springy! What a tune!
Thanks, Andy! Glad you like it! :)
Played with joy and heard with joy - thank You for sharing Your video!
I appreciate your kind words!
Nice little song set! ❤
Thank you Caroline! :) I'll be continuing to practice it and hopefully get a little smoother with both of the tunes!
wonderful, more accordion please :)
Thank you! It's been a bit since I brought out the accordion, so I appreciate the encouragement!
just fabulous! where did you get your arrangement for this and the slide you did. Love the accordion!
Thank you! I learned them from one of the courses on @onlineacademyofirishmusic and I created the backing tracks myself. Both fun tunes!
Very well played. Quantum leap was one of my favourite childhood show. The theme music still plays in my mind today, and I'm 43 years old.Thanks for bringing back my childhood memories. I wish you all the very best!
I also absolutely loved Quantum Leap as a kid, and I still enjoy it when I can catch a replay of any of the episodes! Thanks for taking the time to comment and for your kind words, wishing you the best as well! Cheers!
Excellent performance as the minstrel in the gallery at this event Wendy as well as a great choice of tunes and playing. Your community is lucky to have you perform for them. 🙂
Thanks very much, Dave, I appreciate the kind words!
