Sheer genius what a piping master Thank-you Sean

[@upiper71]

Thanks Sean! So wonderful to hear Seamus Ennis' playing revived in the The Bucks.

[@eoinoceallaigh2472]

I'm always amazed by the sheer range of sounds out of the uillean pipes and the coordination required to play them

[@patrickodonnell4109]

Master Class playing 🎶. The musicianship speaks for itself. Thank you

[@dukadarodear2176]

We should not take this literal Stellar musicianship for granted. Heavenly!

[@lugs79]

I remember Seamus playing this. Great on the Coynes flat set

[@ibassnote]

Flow and drive. Incredible.

[@RyanMcGiver]

Well said.

Sean, thanks for posting this video. I first heard Seamus Ennis play on the Album “Irish Pipe and Tin Whistle Songs, later published on CD as the Bonny Bunch of Roses, 40 years ago. Still have the vinyl album. The First House in Connaught was electrifying, and the humor in The Devil and the Farmer’s Wife is STILL funny. The interplay between pipes, his “droning” voice on the verses and lilting chorus on The Praties are Dug and The Frost is All Over is just marvelous. I must have four or five different versions of Bucks on various albums, all different, and love them all, even the one that appears to have been recorded on a lacquer cylinder and sounds like it is being played under water. I love your version of Bucks, especially, the wrist work on the regulators We are so fortunate today to have access to the historical recordings and to modern musicians like yourself. I Liked, Subscribed, and Hit the Bell, and look forward to hearing more of your playing pop up on my YT feed here in the USA.

[@blucheer8743]

The Bucks of Oranmore was played earlier in Scotland than here in Ireland and is still played in the Western Isles. It's real name is "The Bucks of Aranmore". It's a Scottish-Gaelic reel. This is Great Uilleann Piping. Go raibh maith agat.

Holy crap, I think it's fair to say Sean Mckeon is the Eddie Van Halen of Piping!!! Spectacular piping. Fair play. Makes me think i should've learned the spoons and not the pipes!!!

[@misterflibble6601]

If I were 40 years younger I would have gotten up and did a reel around the living room!

[@giuseppelogiurato5718]

Uillean pipes: the apotheosisis of the bagpipe.

[@awtistiaeth4699]

Wow! Just "WOW! How on earth do you do that? Seriously! You're almost splitting your brain into four independent yet connected parts. I struggle to use two hands on a piano for hec's sake. SO impressed. Both with the original creator and your breathtaking playing. I can see the Wicklow mountains from my kitchen window, I wish I could hear your playing as well. Diolch mawr or Míle buíochas (hope that's correct).
