Re: Variations on a theme with developmental arc
Great playing.
I know you are an Irish/Celtic music guy.
My parents are from Ireland but I was born in London/
Noticed that UK folk music can sound similar to Irish.
This song is very old and traditional to Northumberland and could well be Celtic in origin
These guys are fantastic
If you only listen for 30s then check out the part where she both sings and fiddles solo at the same time : 2:50

Thanks for the thoughtful reply, Sub - I will check out that fiddler's 'chops'.SubRivers wrote: ↑Fri Oct 28, 2022 4:15 pmGreat playing.

My post was meant to be a bit of a parody of the ongoing discussion of creating workable Instrumental Cues.
I'm pretty much a 'Newbie' to the whole spectrum of the styles of music that gather under the very large umbrella of "Celtic" music.
In real life, I play mandolin and tenor banjo at the local Irish Trad Session meet ups;
but my ears really favor the Scottish fiddle/piano style found in Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia.
I just don't know how to play any of that.

Hey Alan - I'm not 100% sure - but I believe it to be a bouzouki;AlanHall wrote: ↑Sat Oct 29, 2022 9:00 amOK, Peter. What's the stringed instrument the guy is playing? Baritone mandolin or something?funsongs wrote: ↑Thu Oct 27, 2022 8:46 pmFun example, eh? And: a button ending.

which is quite commonly used in Celtic session/dance tunes.
You will, at times, see a similar-looking/sounding octave mandolin - and really the only difference is the tuning.
A bouzouki is more likely gonna be getting played with chords, and strummed as a backing instrument;
whereas an octave mandolin - literally tuned an octave below the fiddle & mandolin - will be playing the melody of the tune.
HTH.
