    Every once in a while.....someone comes along to totally 'redefine' an instrument. And Cormac Begley is just that. *BRAVO!*

    I remember Cormac as a teen playing around West Kerry when I lived with Seamus for a few years I will never forget this magical time around the Begley family, hes taken what he's learned from his father Breanndan growing up and developed his own unique and powerful style, I have never heard a concertina sound like this ever. It's wild, powerful and just raw phenomenally good.

      You've hit the nail on the head... this is learned when on our Mother's knee listening to our Dad's, the Aunties and Uncles, the cousins and the nephews, and the family, friends and neighbours... around our kitchen tables.
      We are very lucky... we were within 1 or 2 generations of losing it too.

Then the tragedy, the fall, now to war...the rhythm breaks , the struggle , stay afloat. Triumph the rhythm comes back .... reformed and realigned. Rise now the soul is formidable.
