Frankie is out of this world on the fiddle. Also a very good flute player. Up Galway!

One of the best settings of this tune I've heard so far!

This'll always be the greatest version. Just when I thought I was doing a good job.

It's the James Morrison version sped up. Frankie's whole style as he's said himself was largely based on Morrison

@@dazpatreg In this masterclass, Frankie says his bowing technique was developed by trying to emulate Sean McGuire, who he says "probably had the best bow hand of all time." kzitem.info/news/bejne/24yM3myda2p7gW0

@Lisnageeragh Gavin's Band De Danann tuned to E-Flat for years so he's probably tuned there. I've got an excerpt of them from the 1970's with Gavin fiddling under my user name. The links won't post so search my user name, but put a double quote before and after my name you see. You'll find the De Danann clip in the list.

@UISTMAN59 From the usual tuning around A/440 .

@UISTMAN59 It's distinctive, that's probably the most likely reason. Cathal Hayden does the same, it changes the sound.

He has tuned the fiddle up a semitone from GDAE, so this tune (normally in Bm), is now played in the key of Cm.

@Lisnageeragh @Lisnageeragh I only wish I knew :-( I don't play fiddle or pipes myself and can only read music very slowly. I have a couple of sound clips of Shetlanders talking about how they tune the fiddle for tunes. I read ages ago that fiddlers in various parts of Scotland (& Cape Breton) sometimes use EAEA Scordatura. West Coast fiddlers are said to use the myxolidian mode with aflattened 7th but by now I am well out of my depth - All I can say is "fiddle music all sounds good to me"

@UISTMAN59 It probably would play easier with the Highland bagpipes....though I imagine it would lose a bit in tone quality....what do Scottish fiddle players do?

The fiddle is tuned up around a semitone ..?? Tone / resonance / flow?

@Lisnageeragh Thanks for replying . Does that mean that instead of being in A the fiddle is in Bb (which would suit the Highland bagpipes (maybe!) :-) ?

@Lisnageeragh it's impossible for a fiddler to play a duet together with a highland bagpipe. Those things are way too loud. Fiddle with bagpipe would mean the pipe is a small pipe, uillean pipe or something like that.

Fearsome! 😅 I prefer Tommy Peoples, Paddy Glackin and Maireid Ní Mhaonaigh, Kevin Burke and Mary Custy. But he seemed like perhaps the most skillled.
