Kevin Elam - Bucks of Oranmore/Farewell to Erin (with Tom McKeon)

[@elfoxini]

Wow, so beautiful. That's why I'm learning flute, for the possibility to play such songs, most preferably in the forest

[@nobody2021]

i've tried listening to other renditions of this song and this is by far my favorite. when i listen to a different performance it just makes me want to come back and listen to this one instead

[@bustabloodvessel5327]

Go hiontach. This is some of the best whistle playing I've ever heard. Bearing in mind that I first picked one up in national school nearly 40 years ago and that I live in Co Clare and have had a chance to listen to some great players throughout my life. This really is fantastic and thanks for sharing. 👍

[@KevinElamMusic]

Thank you so much, that comment means a lot to me. There's still so much I want to improve but it's great to hear that folks enjoy hearing me play!

[@FavianShields]

@@KevinElamMusic I am! I bought a Killarney and have been learning a few songs. It's so much fun. What kind of whistle are you using in this video?

[@KevinElamMusic]

this version of 'Bucks' is so good, imo it's as good as the Matt Molloy one.

That is extremely high praise! Thank you so much! I have to disagree, I think Matt is untouchable, but I appreciate the comment :)

He sure could whistle to the pretty ladies .

[@myhobbyvideos]

Wow this is one of my favorite whistle tunes I’ve heard. It’s sounds amazing. Looks like you’re multi-talented in music. How long have you been playing the whistle?

[@KevinElamMusic]

Hey thanks so much for dropping a comment! I'm glad you love this tune. I love it too! I started playing the whistle in high school, so about 15 years ago now.

[@Roensmusic]

these drums sound really nice, flute should be a low i prefer

[@fredm8569]

What whistle are you playing? You play so well.

[@KevinElamMusic]

Hey Fred thanks for the comment! It's a Michael Burke cylindrical bore high D whistle. A fantastic whistle with plenty of punch and not terribly expensive either.

[@felipeluiz2473]

orelhas de duendes, flautas ? algo estranho está no ar ....

Hey Simon! thanks for the comments. You're right, we could go faster, but there's really no need sometimes!

[@giusecavuo]

La sordinella va bene anche per il sopranino?

[@KevinElamMusic]

Sorry - What is a "sordinella" ?

[@FrMaximilianMaryDean]

@@KevinElamMusic "sordo" means deaf - "sordinella" is a mute that is used on soprano recorders. But still, I have no idea what he is asking. That aside, great playing and I had never heard of a bodhran - what a great combo (bodhran and tin whistle). God bless...

[@KevinElamMusic]

Thanks for the input on the Italian! And, glad you enjoyed it. Yep, bodhran and whistle is one of the classic combos in Irish music.

[@simongaudry1951]

Don't worry mate, they'll be too busy dancing to make any love ...

No need for concern.the wives would be too busy dancing to make any love
