this is absolutely gorgeous. makes my soul feel so good. renewed. makes me feel reborn. makes me feel refreshed. thank you so much. my heart and soul can't thank you enough. mmmm soooo good. soothes me mind and all of me
What a beautifully played set! A lot of those 144,000 views are mine :-D After four years of trying I can finally play the third tune, Donald Willy and His Dog (I learned it from this recording!)
Really enjoyed that. The section around 2:15 was so haunting - the chords with the 'crushes'. And those fiddle ornaments that sound like the bleating of Irish pipes! Tell me: wouldn't her instrument resonate a bit better if it didn't have about a pound of rosin stuck to the top?!
It's misleading to call this a slip jig set. The first tune is a regular jig, in 6/8. The slip jigs begin at 2:15 and 3:21. I don't know these tunes, but the oldest comment (from four years ago) gives some names for them. That's some fine fiddle playing, and the guitar is quite good also. Active rhythm playing, but not too active!
+twessels Ya it's rosin. She needs to clean that shit off. I don't get why some fiddlers wear it like a badge of honor. It'll ruin the finish eventually.
+Cjirucha What does the appearance of the instrument matter? I've heard amazing music played on beaten up weathered instruments. In fact, in my own playing, I prefer my busted up flute to my shiny well-kept one. The instruments are just well-loved.
+Marco g Hi friend Marco. Just a small correction, Casu is in Asturias (it is the province that is next to Galicia) Taking Casu Field. If one day you come I'll buy you cider. It is typical here. Kind regards
+bodhranmoni not always ;) A lot of musicians will learn with the sheet music to begin with, then change it up to suit their style or the versions played around them. I have a fairly even 50/50 split between sheet learning and learning by ear.
shes amazing proud to say shes my cousin
The Tunes are:
Muñeira de Casu (Austurian), Farewell to Whalley Range (Irish), & Donald Willy and His Dog (Scottish).
Awesome , thanks!
I think the Muneira de Casu means something like "Accidental Jig." Please correct me if I am wrong.

Muñeira de Casu *w* nice Tune.... Also... Lunasa play it:3
これがフィドルか〜！
❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
it's amazing how Gillian Boucher played this Jig with her eyes shut
why is it amazing to keep your eyes shut?
Great playing, Guitar in DADGAD?
What is this white dust on her violin?
+twessels Rosin from the bow
+twessels Ya it's rosin. She needs to clean that shit off. I don't get why some fiddlers wear it like a badge of honor. It'll ruin the finish eventually.
+twessels On a less cynical note, she's quite good so if she wants to leave it there it's her choice haha.
Hi it's because she plays or fiddle so much and the Rosen on her bow rubs off which creates the White stuff and it's not dust it's rubbed off Rosen

The first tune is not a slip jig.
+Nataliya Laptyeva I had the same feeling. Seems to be a regular jig (6/8).

Sure, is a Galician tune, Muñeira de Casu.
+Marco g That is interesting, and something I'm glad I learned. But I was only referring to the meter (6/8, not 9/8).
+Marco g Hi friend Marco. Just a small correction, Casu is in Asturias (it is the province that is next to Galicia) Taking Casu Field. If one day you come I'll buy you cider. It is typical here. Kind regards
Nataliya Laptyeva i thought the same. Put it on to dance and was like umm the timing is not right here...
I think Gillian play's the Harp
Amazing but, sheet music????

Irish musicians play by ear.......no sheet music !
+bodhranmoni not always ;) A lot of musicians will learn with the sheet music to begin with, then change it up to suit their style or the versions played around them. I have a fairly even 50/50 split between sheet learning and learning by ear.
Can you play- with or without sheet music?
There are songs that I could never have fully "understood" without starting with the written music for a bit but I like to practice boys ways.
will you marry me, my grace?
