Carolan's Welcome

[@stevekilligrew788]

I love this tune and what a gorgeous interpretation, the fluidity and subtle rhythm flexing throughout is a delight. Thanks to the Great Carolan & Dave Hill’s playing for bringing it so vibrantly to life. One love.

Go hálainn ar fad! I got goosebumps whilst listening to your version of this!

[@thomasdeenihan4191]

No recording equipment when this piece was first performed. Music to last the ages

[@thegreatselkie6009]

Very beautiful!!!

[@seancoleman9625]

What a fine piece of music! Turlough O'Carolan was such a brilliant composer of these early Irish tunes. It has been a pleasure listening to your playing, Dave. Keep the tradition going as harp music is ethereal and heavenly.

His name is just Carolan not O'Carolan

[@GraeneyMac]

Lovely, lovely touch. Thank you.

[@faithhaddad7650]

A comment on Reddit suggested that this piece inspired the Star Wars AOTC version of the Imperial March and the Game of Thrones theme

[@dariusduesentrieb]

You mean "When you realize Game of Thrones ripped its theme from Attack of the Clones." on r/PrequelMemes?

[@romanpokutskyiofficial2092]

[@johnhayes8557]

Failte go raibh. Related to the Happy to Meet tune anciently of Oriel, in a late Baroque arrangement. An fháilte is fearr eiamh

[@eileenaroon4293]

Did this Dave Hill record other pieces? I see the cover of a cassette with a harp and his name at the beginning of this video? Could you share more from him?

[@lindamon8]

I'm not aware of any other recordings by Dave, other than what's on this (and another) cassette. I saw him play at Beverley Folk Club a couple of times. I went to his house where he kindly gave me a copy of another cassette he did on the life and music of Turlough O'Carolan. I'll see if I can find it.

[@eileenaroon4293]

@@lindamon8His playing sounds amazing! Do you know of any way to get in touch with him? I’d love to purchase a copy of his cassettes. If not, would you mind uploading what you have to KZbin? This is some of the best harp music I’ve heard

[@lindamon8]

Dave is a very talented man, but I've completely lost touch. If I find him, I'll let you know. I'll upload the full cassette when I find time. Thanks so much for your comments.@@eileenaroon4293

[@lindamon8]

Hi Eileen, I'm at last getting around to uploading more Dave Hill recordings. You should find what I've done so far by searching The Solo Sessions. Dave Hill.@@eileenaroon4293

@@angelicaluce3230 Same. I'm literally just sitting here putting everything in google translate. I've been trying to learn, but I only know a little bit.

[@chrisparrott7412]

You can't call him O' Carolan - It's either Turlough O'Carolan or just plain Carolan

[@mikmcd2075]

why ? his surname is O' Carolan
