Thank you.

I've figured out a bit more of the video editing software...it means I don't have to sit awkwardly and balance the laptop precariously to record a close up of the concertina.

I can relax a bit more and sit in a comfortable position which makes it easier to play. And then crop and zoom on the video to make it close up.

Hi

your playing is becoming more musical - less time on mudcat more on practice

I dont know how to get it to you, but there is a concertina moment around 15 seconds into the clip.

Anyone know the name of the first tune on the video "Celtic Christmas"?

According to my friend, Jim Kane, the tune is a set dance, Planxty Davis. Notes on The Session say:

This is one of the dozen or so surviving tunes composed by Thomas Connellan, an Irish harpist, who spent a lot of time in Scotland around the 1600s and named this tune after the battle of Killiecrankie. Brother of William Connellan - between them they composed over 700 tunes, only a handfull survive.

 

A youtube search will turn up several versions, but I like best the one Leo found.

Cheers,

Molly

And just in case anyone wanted to know, the second tune is "Christmas Day Ida Morning" - a lovely Shetland Tune

You'll have me whistling this, all day, now. A great tune which I had worked up on the Maccann Duet which I sold early last year. First heard it played (and recorded it) at Holmfirth Folk Festival 1985. This might well be the correct tempo, but I used to take it much slower.
