I don't even know how he makes half of the sounds that he does on that drum. Amazing bodhran player. One I've followed for years, and am still in awe of his skill.

Mance Grady had a version of this slide bar only you stick your hand in a padded cord to slide. The bar could be adjusted to be angled. It's a cool concept. Nice job!

Well, the MONss (Martin O'Neill signature series) is by now truly a well established standard for bodhráns. Often copied - never reached.

As I stated about the first prototype (links in description) the idea never really caught on. The second prototype presented here was created in spite of that.

@@HinnerkRue well it was s good idea....if a little complex......and structurally rigid in attatchment ...how about a paint roller idea ....only smaller, a free wheeling wooden roller held in the hand to the backt of the skin,still a little complex but not fixed rigidly to the bodhran....I think you can buy such a small roller from printing crafts it's used to supply Ink to blocks.....just shorten the handle to make it fit in the palm of thr hand , ?

@@lightningspirit2166 Personally, I don't use any tools for the skin hand. I should point out that I'm just an amateur who plays the bodhrán for fun. I prefer just to use my hand, as it is - in my opinion - far more flexible. The tone changes depending on where you put your hand, what part of the hand you use, the shape you create with your hand, the amount of pressure you use - and so on. Long sticks on the inside of the drum, like the roller of the "Melody Mate", seem to create some "strange" overtones wich I personally am not fond of. I added a remark about the first prototype to the description.

@@HinnerkRue hello ....yes ....there are some tools that the hand can't mimic eg snare effects ...which a brush to the rear of thd skin can effect.....but pressure on the rear skin by hand does offer more pressure variety....there are many supportive percussion techniques that can be effected by tools....whilst beating the skin...eg ...shaker bodhran tippers ...beaters ......etc..I personally like to experiment....some of my techniques are unique and must for now remain secret....Needless to say I can effect 2 or 3 separate supportive percussive sounds to the main bodhran sound,at the same time not inclufing the voice ...!

I love what Jim Higgins brings to Craiceann…a top drawer example of straight-forward, solid playing that is sympathetic to the tune yet holds the floor for melody. This is what session players should strive for…we are often lured my the prowess and flash of well rehearsed stage performers (which I love) but this is the tradition right here. Thanks to Jim for representing this. I hope to get back to the Island one day and I hope he is there to teach me.

there is a lot of conversation about how to best get the melody. I wonder how heavy that bar is with those movements or is it just that your standing?
@HinnerkRue7 ай бұрын
Normally you sit down to play the bodhrán. For this video I rested my left foot on a stone (or something) to get the drum in the normal playing position. The mechanism is not heavy, but even though I'm just an amateur, if find it limiting. You can achieve more differences in tone just with your hand on the inside of the drum head. The roller that touches the drum head is pretty wide and I assume that this causes unsusual overtones while playing and makes the drum sound so "unusual".
