RIP Dennis Cahill, I will miss your excellent musicianship

Fine musicians should never die .... we need them desperately ... but sadly, they eventually have to leave us. At least, these days, we have memories of them on disc and video ..... but even better to see and hear them in person.

As a fiddler who began at age 40, this is so beautiful, it hurts. And Cahill's muscality and restraint as a guitarist is mind-blowing. Yet the pace of the music is accessible and so there is so much to be learned here about making music. It makes me wish I was five and could develop my neuronal connections from scratch, rather than having to deal with these aged untrained things. Lovely.

I started playing at 48, so I know where you are coming from. We can all aspire to be as great as our heroes, and in our own way we will be, just for trying.

After learning many hundreds of fiddle tunes from all over (I play concertina) over 45 years, especially Irish fiddle tunes, I find Martin Hayes always brings me down to earth and reminds me it's not about the melody, it's about the lift, the swing, the pace, the timing. I feel like I can learn new tunes all day long, but to play with his sense of time...well, it's good to have something that you will always aspire to! I saw him in Ennis a few years ago and it just made my heart sing.

I am lucky to have been raised in a household with great access to Irish music. My mother knows all the musicians, including Martin and Dennis, and my father was the regional chairman of comhaltas. It's so incredible to hear it live.

Why does the music of Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill resonate for me so much. Not only are they virtuoso musicians but they also reflect the interanimation of US, Irish and global sounds that connect to my own immersion as an Irish immigrant in jazz, Appalachian blue grass, Irish Trad and more.... They open up music glocalization in radicallly possible ways. Superb :)

Words fail when it comes to musicians of this calibre... simply transcendent! So sad to lose Dennis Cahill. Heaven, though, must now be so much more heavenly!! Also, worth saying, I think, that those souls who really feel and/or understand exquisite music when they hear it (whether they play it or not) also possess great beauty within. You can't truly appreciate something unless there is something in you of a similar nature. So, long live all you beautiful souls who feel the music and love it! You are an integral part of it.

It's often called "hunt the squirrel" but I've heard Martin Hayes call it "chase the hare". It's often played in D or G but Martin plays it in Bflat... and doesn't rush it so it sounds like a whole new tune!

one of the sounds of Ireland. there is diversity in Irish music, that's part of what's good about it. I would say Martin Hayes' interpretations are pretty individual to him, as well, so it's not a generic sound at all

@jamessobczak7174 жыл бұрын
Turns out the piece you mention is a bit of a mid-medley improvisation that Martin & Dennis came up with. Dennis plays essentially the same riff, and Martin does variations on various rhythmic phrases that he would normally use in a traditional setting. Martin mentioned it in a different video that I long since lost track of. A bit of musical fearlessness. Hoping this helps.

The guitar has no place in Irish traditional music. All the old recordings from the twenties and thirties are equally blighted by the out of tune piano's played by people with no clue about Irish music.
@chriscrilly88075 жыл бұрын
Aha, there had to be at least one lurking folk nazi. Guitar has no place in Irish traditional music? Where did you get such an unpleasant and batty notion from? The violin was imported into Irish musical culture as was the flute and the banjo and the pipes etc. There is no pure form of anything. It's a never ending evolutionary process.
