    The reel entitled “The Banshee” is a session favorite pretty much everywhere. It was composed by James McMahon (b. ≈1900), a flute player originally from South Fermanagh, in Northern Ireland. He married Rose Tally, eventually moved to Belfast, and became an influential flute player there. He composed several other well-known tunes, including “The Ivory Flute” (he actually played an ivory-headed flute), which employs nearly the whole range of the flute. McMahon was also a member of the early McPeake’s Ceili Band. While this tune used to be called “McMahon’s Reel” many decades ago, it is said that he himself called it “The Banshee.” While in Ireland it is once again commonly called “McMahon’s Reel,” it is hardly ever called that in the States these days, except by people recently returning from Ireland. The tune was recorded on the eponymous Bothy Band album (1975) as “The Banshee.” In some sessions this reel is played ABAB, in others it is played AABB as I have it here.

Él se casó con Rose Tally, finalmente se trasladó a Belfast y se convirtió en un flautista muy influyente. Compuso varias melodías bien conocidas, como "The Ivory Flute" (realmente tocaba una flauta de con cabeza de Marfil). McMahon era también un miembro de la banda de Ceili de McPeake. Mientras esta canción solía ser llamada "Reel de McMahon" hace muchas décadas, se dice que él mismo la llamaba "The Banshee". En algunas sesiones es tocado con la estructura ABAB, y en otras ocasiones AABB.

    I love this! Fantastic playing! And the guitar backing too is great. Guitar has a bit of a Beatles vibe at the start, to me anyway!

      That'll be the minor 7th flavour combined with the chromatic movment through the chords and of course the sound of the instrument itself ...

    Me encanta! Suena genial, yo tengo el mismo low whistle en D pero de Kerry. Estuve dudando mucho si Kerry o Goldie

    •  6 лет назад +1

      Luis Miguel Aguilar muchas gracias, Luis Miguel!! Y qué tal con el Kerry? Estás contento? Yo tiré por los Goldie y no quiero cambiar.
      Saludos.

      Pues la verdad es que estoy muy contento. Es cierto que estuve dudando mucho entre uno u otro pero al final consultando comentarios de personas que tenían ambos vi que la diferencia era pequeña. Ahora quiero comprar un whistle en D y estaba con la misma duda, kerry o goldie haha

    Lovely tune! I just bought a low D chieftain, look forward to play it like you do! About the guitar, did you record it or did you find a back track somewhere?

    •  4 года назад

      Sorry for delay, Lydie. I didn't see it. The guitar was recorded by my guitarist friend. He recorded in Bflat and I transposed it to D. Thank so much.
