Crazy accompaniment. This man built a story with his guitar. Only a great player can hold back for so long. Nothing to prove. A master.

[@pianoboogieman7290]

Totally outstanding musicianship. Mind you I was playing just as good as this last night…. then I woke up. Couldn’t decide whether to practice harder or just throw my whistle in the bin.

[@thegravelwalker]

If I could like this 1 million times I would.... God blessed you Kevin Crawford :)

[@saviskywalker4136]

From the meditative point of view, the violinist played his part well.

[@totheknee]

Underrated comment of the month. 😂

[@markkavanagh4457]

That Fiddle player is Martin Hayes, and he's one of Irelands greatest musicians! And unless you have half the skill he has you're definitely not in a position to criticise..

[@SirSelby]

@@markkavanagh4457 Easy there, chief. No one was criticizing him. He was just making a lighthearted joke about how he was sitting throughout the whole set. There was no malice, so there’s no need to react in such an over the top manner.

[@juliegordon7290]

😂

[@marciastern9015]

The Irish don't listen to music with their ears. They listen with their entire bodies. We could all learn a few things from that.

[@keithhakansson1988]

When irish music is performed at a high level like this it is a match for any of the other great musical forms such as latin roots jazz and classical, thanks for the positive energy guys

[@davidlonergan7295]

Kevin is unbelievable, bit I'm a guitar player and looking at John Doyle , he's unreal , his rythm and his little voicing chords to the melody are sublime

[@diarmaidmurphy7354]

Thank you so much for videoing this sir

[@Tomlin242]

I still just get my mind blown each time watching this.

[@jaywells6838]

Kevin never ceases to amaze me. Never known anyone so "in" to the music he plays.

[@niallcrehan69]

Beautiful and brilliant 🎉

[@andrewkellers9275]

☺☺☺☺..music is great....and the carboard cut out in the middle so life like

[@grimbolgi3057]

Can't stop watching this

[@ismaelbelda1]

This is one of the best things on KZbin.

[@glynnp42]

Brilliant!!!

[@Bagpipe13]

Freaking amazing grace ❤️

[@PlaiulNou]

The Irish song starting at 3:30 is so beautiful! Like from Romania!

[@totheknee]

Does Romania have ties to Ireland? I have friends from there and visited multiple times when I lived in BG, but unfortunately I never heard the folk music there...

[@PlaiulNou]

@@totheknee Yes! We Romanians also have Celtic heritage! Celts lived in many regions of Romania. For example "Galati" town and county name in Romania comes from the Gals (Celts) that lived there. In "Transilvania" or "Maramureș" areas we also had many Celts who left beautiful traces in our culture, for example in the traditional Romanian Tartan textile motifs of alternative black and white squares with lines, very similar to the Scottish ones, or in our traditional music, the whistle playing tradition, we have many very old Celtic crosses throughout Romana! In "Apuseni" mountains lived many Celts as well, and this can also be seen in the fact that men in that area had long braided hair and still "diddle" songs like the Irish to this day! Search for "The Revolt of Horea, Closca and Crisan 1784" for example and you can see from their pictures that they had a Celtic hairstyle. These are only a few examples. There are many more! Just like one has 4 grandparents, the Romanian people have 4 ancestors: the Romans, the Thracian-Illyrians, the Celts, and the Scythians. Regarding the folk music in Romania, here is a video example of a Romanian traditional "Diddle" song from Apuseni mountains area where many Celts lived. The Irish also have this very old tradition of "Diddle" songs! There are not many places on Earth people traditionally "DIDDLE" songs. Romania and Ireland are two of them! Celts also lived in the Alps before being Germanized. The "Yodeling" traditional songs from the Alps area are very similar to the Irish or Romanian "Diddling" traditional songs, being part of the common Celtic heritage. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKLOiHyJqJqgadE Here is a music video with Romanian traditional whistle music The Jiana Traditional Whistle Tune from Polovragi, Romania - Nicolae Sanda feat. Dan Panu-Misailescu kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKCvq4KLmrGrfrM

[@arkatrad]

Class playing and vibe 👌

[@cyndifallon1484]

[@monicamann4438]

[@kimberleydelaney3925]

[@davidlonergan7295]

unbelievable

[@naugadanedhel]

so so beautiful !!!

[@eileennestor9274]

Fabulous

[@kevincarberry7471]

It's beyond me how martin Hayes never even tapped a toe to this outstandingly driving music never mind leap around the place. Did he fall asleep or what? Fucking great stuff. Hup!!!

[@richH1625]

Kevin Carberry just after 4:25 his head moved about five millimetres, possibly in time to the music - ;-)

[@craiggreer2289]

He was listening, does he have to tap his fit to do that?

[@paulloughlin1529]

craig,there are still some sad people on u tube, who know or care little about the music. best just ignore them.

[@craiggreer2289]

Paul Loughlin indeed. Maybe Martin should have been up dancing to the slow air 🤣 You do have to wonder what people are thinking when then criticise masters of the tradition 🤔

[@kevinbarrycarberry2579]

I was just wondering why he didn't react is all. And for your information Paul I'm actually an uilleann piper, whistle player bodhrán and guitar player to name but just a few instruments. Did you tap your foot or feet? Jog on. Hon the boy's, hup👏

[@kallepunkken]

This is the closest any human ever came to being a bird

[@markkavanagh4457]

Gwan Kevin, lovely stuff mista... See ye soon...

[@SimonDoo7]

Amazing set ! Thank you

[@kallepunkken]

I wonder if musicians ever cry when they get to cry so often through instruments

[@christytyson8985]

Great to hear a mistro in action

[@sinanag9575]

no matter how much you play! you can't cheer up the sad hairy fiddler boi

[@SF-ry3gg]

What a miserable bollox!!

[@paulloughlin1529]

what a miserable statement

[@HEADSUPBERKELEY]

You are mistaking cheer lack by not realizing he is concentrating on the music. I used to have that misgiving and happy to be rid of it

[@cyndifallon1484]

Such an amazing musician with humility, he is silently and attentively trying not to distract from the other two musicians.

[@annedunne4526]

@@SF-ry3gg he is Martin Hayes, an incredible fiddle player and he's listening respectfully to his friend Kevin. There is nothing miserable about him. He's a funny lovely man.

[@derekstallman]

7:23 hah love it

[@Simplesimple123]

Amazing !!

[@Bagpipe13]

In my humble opinion thee best version of Anbuachaill Caol as opposed to Naill & Cillia version indeed.

[@brendandunne4401]

Can't believe I've only just noticed how much Martin Hayes looks like Robin Williams

[@hoogreg]

I always thought he looked like the Irish version of Kenny G. :-)

[@brendandunne4401]

Hysterical!

[@k-dogstor1170]

Class!

[@riverwindflutes]

Also what is the name of that second tune ? Love it !!!!!

[@oliverroy19]

Gorgeous

[@depressivepumpkin7312]

[@tstirm]

Anyone know what the last tune is? It is fantastic!

[@rubendelgado7093]

[@BobaFettUccine22]

A version of Tinker Frolic's, using a D whistle It'd be in Am! ;)

[@Emmel1984]

[@PipersGrip]

[@PipersGrip]

+Thomas Ryan Also in the key of Bb.

[@cshoemaker27]

yeah it's a Grinter. He's got a few.

[@HEADSUPBERKELEY]

I have a few whistles and wonder what key the whistle is in

[@asl33py0]

Can anyone name the reel?

[@martinlaird4738]

Anyone know the last tune?

[@balddonaldcerrone7930]

Martin Laird i know right

[@mauricioawen4076]

hola amigos, disculpen mi ignorancia... soy vientista de whistle pero esa flauta quien las hace??

[@merseb04]

Me parece es Bb hecho por Roy McManus.

[@Klaudiusian]

Kevin, what's the name o' that reel at the end ?

[@sipacupoftea]

The Tinker's Frolic

[@thisone9]

A whistle?

[@takfrosty]

B flat

[@riverwindflutes]

Is this in Bb ?

[@AndyBalinsky]

Kevin is on a Bb whistle, but the tunes are in Eb (or the relative minor of that).

Eu gosto do Martin Heyes, mas ele me parece ser um cara antipático. Uma figura que pouco ri. Não entendo este comportamento triste.
