Paddy Callaghan - Be Thou My Vision & Reels

[@volkerke5315]

That is one reason why I must visit Irland again. The last time I was 29, now I'm 60 Greetings from Germany

[@ernst2225]

I would never have thought it possible.Paddy was with us in Syke near Bremen.A friendly musician, with whom you could talk very nice and who showed his skills on stage a super musician.My wife died of cancer in 2014 and every time I hear the beginning of this melody, the slow part, I have to cry. This music goes deep with me, and hits my feelings. Greetings to Paddy and his great music. ... and I like to cry to this music.

Greetings from a Swede who lived in Ireland in the 90s (Dublin), when people still visited the churches, and I remember hearing this heavenly hymn from the 6th or 8th century.

I've had the pleasure to meet Adam Brown on guitar. He's an exceptionally kind fellow and the most talented Bodhran player on the planet!

I’m from New York. This was a well used hymn ! I am Protestant affiliated with American Baptist church for reference. In my younger years I used to snooze at the organ playing stodgy hymns . Now , this rendition makes me feel comforted and spicy!

[@DanielMooreDJ]

That is one of the nicest sounding bodhrans I have ever heard

[@sokonokesokonoke2326]

[@avidnongetit8710]

I truly Love this song, though it always makes me cry, and feel such deep emotions. Thank you so much And thank you God for my Irish soul.

[@Kitiwake]

Remember... this is a song from the Irish Catholic tradition.

[@Joey-ve7ku]

[@bugler75]

This predates the Catholism in Ireland. It celebrates our Lord and Saviour. ✝️ An Irishman.

[@raphaelpinel2614]

I recognized the first reel: The Millhouse, also played by Talisk. Great sound!!!

What sort of pillocks would give this a thumbs down.Brilliant .Im here giving it lally on the fiddle.

[@starstriker8985]

[@celticisraelite1231]

May God give His eyes to all who hear this beautiful hymn to see Christ… Be Thou My Vision is THE greatest hymn that God breathed upon the Irish, sung in the heart language He gave them Revelation of Christ is their final revolution…

[@bigoldgrizzly]

The hymn tune was arranged from an original Irish folk air - a lovely tune to both hear and to play.

[@uhoh007]

So nice to hear Paddy play slowly at first, and hear those gorgeous big chords. He is no slouch at speed either :)

[@petercooper6546]

What's it got to do with Catholicism??? Which tried to suppress traditional dance, from a Catholic, 🤔

[@ShaneIrwin7]

Catholics aren’t Christian’s though. 😢. Catholicism is a deadly mix of paganism and (false) Christianity. It’s like mixing milk with gasoline. It yields neither good milk or gas. Catholicism is not only unbiblical, but often anti-biblical, and this can be shown emphatically so. I pray you will see the deception and flee that religion of works and idolatry. ❤

[@thelordhasbeengracious2343]

Ah, that puts a smile on my face, God bless you all for this... You are all wonderful, but as a guitarist myself, i have to say nice guitar playing and energy... Blessings...

Are you sure the second tune is Lord of all hopefulness?

@@vicenteperez4852 Not the 2nd tune, that is a series of reels. The first tune is Slane. As I said above Be thou my vision, also Lord of all hopefulness, and Banks of the Bann are sung to the tune Slane,. Great players.

[@ourluxor]

One of my favourite hymns and a lovely song as The Banks of the Bann, which I sing occasionally as well. Funnily enough I was messaging, only last night, with a friend who was born in Slane and now lives here in Luxor, Egypt where I also live part time! Thanks for this lovely rendition, Paddy.
