      💯%...l have lrish ancestry and never been to Ireland and never met any Irish relatives not yet anyway and so occasionally l will play Irish music to remind me l am Irish too. I immediately feel at home in Ireland, and yet l have never been there.

    I've said it before, on other videos, that I believe Catherine Ashcroft has surpassed Davy Spillane and even Liam Og O'Flynn as the maestro An Piobhaire. This is the best accolade I could ever give the young lady, which is even more remarkable given the fact she is self-taught - oh, and English! Amazing woman and amazing music! :)

    • @susanshelit

    • @margaretnesbeth593
      @margaretnesbeth593 Год назад

      Catherine is good, but to say she surpasses the master Piper Davy Spillane is really pushing it, there is no one out there, yet, that can hold a candle to Davy's fineness and subtly when playing a tune, slow or fast. I have all his work and I can honestly say no one plays like Davy.

    Timeless beauty, from the Green Island...Happy to have travelled the length and breadth of this amazing place, Irish are Irish, and I'm jealous in a way, that I am not...I travelled in a band to the joys of the people. We had a number 1 record at the time and the Waterboys came to one of our shows...I am a drummer and always I think a crisp snare with brushes would make all the difference...but time moves on, Catherine is so talented and I could listen to her playing solo anytime...mesmerising musician touched by the past and gifted into the future...Maurice is a lucky man!!!

    This could reduce anyone to tears....honestly! Incredible flighty sound of the whistle & pipes. It is hauntingly brilliant & so beautiful. A reminder of a culture and all things great of an ancient people and its past. Would do your heart good listening to this in these strange times. Something to hold on to, it offers hope. We will get through this, normality will return all in good time. Stay safe out there. An Gobha.

    I stand in my kitchen, Pot of soup on the stove. Replaying the glorious haunting tones that touch my soul. Knowing nothing of "Irish" music. Percussion from my chest/ heart. Intrinsic. Natural. Close my eyes. We are one in this world, I think. North Sea blessed by the sea currents that are millions? of years old. Gave rise to this ability to shape sound from minds that were able to imagine air and atmosphere were all around them. Synchronizing the impulses in the human organ that sprang from a desire to express thoughts and emotions in an auditory form that everyone would immediately understand. Seasons were upon them, and time and tide regulated their ability. Not the indestructible will of expression and communication, Visual beauty notwithstanding, is but a hook, to attract us to listen. Listen and watch I will. God bless you from West Texas.

    What a fabulous musical combination. The Instrumental blend and virtuosity breathtaking. I saw Maurice many years ago at the Sidmouth Festival and couldn't believe my eyes and ears. I couldn't tell how many guitars he was playing the sound was so full. As a Pro Musician I was amazed at how he just "blew me away" A real hairs on the back of the neck job and very memorable.
