Southwind by Turlough O'Carolan on Baritone-treble English

[Mike Pierceall]

This is a once-through video I made years back but never published.  Nevertheless, I thought there might be some interest here in what these rare instruments sound like.  Only about 130 were ever made.  The instrument has since returned to the UK.

As I said on Facebook: Nicely played, and interesting instrument, but I don't think that tune is O'Carolan. The Session says: "South Wind was written in the 1700s by "Freckled Donal Macnamara" in homesickness for his homeland in County Mayo, as described in Donal O'Sullivan's wonderful book, "Songs of the Irish."
