All four founding members of Patrick Street -- Kevin Burke on fiddle, Jackie Daly on button accordian, Arty McGlynn on guitar, and Andy Irvine on bouzouki -- are living legends in Irish music. Their awesome talents drive this great three-reel medley.- Altan: Donal agas Morag (Heart of the Gaels)
Puirt-a-beul is Gaelic for "mouth music." Puirt is most basically fiddle or pipe tunes that are sung or "jigged," often using nonense words or syllables, or vocables. This particular bit is Scottish, in three tumbling segments that are just fun to listen to.
A less traditional modern tune composed by Alasdair Fraser, perhaps Scotland's most amazing fiddler. He plays here with the equally amazing Chris Norman on piccolo and Eric Rigler on uillean pipes.
