THE GREAT UILLEANN YOU-TUBE THREAD.

I may have made a mess of it, but I got this tune off a vid of Ronan Browne giving a lecture/recital concerning old manuscripts of harp music- Bunting et al…The vid was promptly removed from u-tube because of copyright issues with NPU TV. Great tunes and discussion were in that video- anyone know the name of this tune? I’m not a member of NPU, so I can’t search their archives… :puppyeyes:

described as “something that sounds like you know it - The Coolin or an An Chúilfhionn (An Chúileann),but from Bunting Manuscript known as The Lady of the Desert”

Padraic Keane playing a Geoff Wooff set and after playing with his family. At the beginning he can be briefly heard playing a Rowsome set. (The program says so)

In my opinion, he sounds completely different while he plays the flat set.


Grrrrr! I want a Wooff set so bad!!! :tantrum:

Is that a C# set he’s playing with the chanter entirely off the knee?..Beautiful tone!

there’s just a little bit of chanter playing in the backgound - not sure who the player is:

Mark Redmond gives it some serious schtick.

Here’s an article about Geoff… http://uilleannobsession.com/extras_geoffwooff_irishecho.html

The tone Padraic is getting out of that chanter is simply amazing! Are there anymore videos of Geoff’s flat chanters?

one of my all-time favorites. Richard Patkós playing a four-reg set he made for Samppa Saarinen. haunting.

In cattle grid, the guitar player is doing an odd humming, he is credited with being the chanter. So what tradition does that come from?

It’s harmonic chanting which has its origins in Mongolia and Tibet. There are two styles, possibly more, one which this guy is attempting where the upper harmonics are amplified, and the second, known as throat singing, where the singer kicks his vocal chords into low gear to bring out the harmonics an octave lower than the fundamental as in this video at about 2:20 in
