Fascinating. Thanks for this lore.
I'm polish, and about a year ago I started playing the accordion, I quickly picked up a liking for irish music, and this video is great to inform myself on the roots of your beautiful music :)
Exactly, people shouldn't be so closed minded, objective not subjective. The Irish Music kicked -off what we know to as Nashville, TN music fad. Bluegrass took off like a shot... keep learning playing, loving it, and enjoy 👀💯💚🍀🇮🇪💚 being Irish as well..
Love love love ❤
great and incredibly informational piece! Thank you. I will be using this in History Club.
Thanks. Let me know if you have any questions.
🍀
Can someone say who were the kings that were dethroned because of lacking entertainment please? I need to know
Nice video!
I'm not competent to comment on the historical aspects of this but I can comment competently about the musical selection. First of all, that is not a session. It is a performance (an excellent one, I might add.) If you want to use the word "session", then you are referring to any one of thousands of regular, informal gatherings of musicians at pubs or community centers who get together to play "chunes." This is reminiscent of get-togethers of yesteryear in kitchens and living rooms over the last couple of hundred years. As to this clip, all but one of them (Troy, who is Canadian) is American. Not that there's anything wrong with that... (I'm American, and not even Irish-American), but if you're going to post a video entitled "A History of Irish Music," then feature some Irish musicians playing Irish music in Ireland. Instead of at New York University (which I attended many years ago...)
I agree with your comments!
I agree. I didn't know the nationality of the players but it struck me as very American with the fiddle player in particular having a Cajun sound. Again, nothing wrong with that but it didn't sound very Irish. Hard to describe but you know it when you hear it... Panxty, Dervish etc. Otherwise an excellent video, very much appreciated.
Mhmm, history. Great. Ok Atlantis? Right off the bat?
That's also what i thought😅
Pseudoskepticism detected.
Don't doubt be objective not subjective. Cultures around the world have used music B4 common people know today.
Music is an international language which has no biased thoughts it's music.
There are so many mistakes here, and so much confusion between myth and reality, that I won't even begin. Any real specialist will just laugh (or cry, depending) at these same myths being repeated without the slightest evidence being produced. Please take everything in this video with a pinch of salt (or a handful of salt, actually). Please read Fintan Vallely's encyclopedia ("Companion to Irish music") for serious information.
OK, just 2 examples: The Trinity harp dates back to the 15th century (maybe late 14th). That's a minimum of 350 years after Brian Boru. And Comhaltas is not pronounced /kioltes/, it's /koltes/. Basic knowledge for anyone working on Irish music.
Your 'just 2 examples' are rather stupid. There is still uncertainty the dating the Trinity Harp. Pronunciation Comhaltas - don't rupture a blood vessel, there's plenty regional variation.
@@mjw12345 Ah ah ah, this tells me more about you than about the harp. Absolutely no serious researcher on the history of traditional Irish music considers any opinion by CCE as valid. They're the laughingstock of historians.
I cringed so hard when he talked about Atlantis in the intro. Embarrassing nonsense, unfortunately.@@mjw12345
