A bouzouki! I subscribed to Frets magazine back in the eighties, and learned about several instruments that I had no previous knowledge of. I have always just loved music, and while guitars have always been my favorite instrument, I have tried to play others. In high school, I played in the band class, and I played the bass clarinet. I have a homemade kalimba and a homemade psaltery that I have tinkered with some. Oh my! I think I am rambling too much. Good job! I really enjoy the various instruments that you use for your videos.
Beautiful arrangement, I have heard this on so many different instruments with so many different arrangements. One artist, four hands? Yeah, that’s a new one! As always my thanks. Be well and safe.
I'm always enthralled by your ability to bring such musical agility too all your compositions. Thanks. Best wishes for now and in the future. 😁😁😁🍀🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💥👋👋👋🍷🍷
This has similitude with the famous song : A Ava inouva from the algerian singer Idir, Thank you for your nice and creative playing , greetings from Berlin
Another wonderful piece. Thank you for performing these, its always an enjoyable experience, and I love seeing the variety of instruments. I play a collection of your videos on days when I paint or write.
Here's the lyrics if you didn't know Ja nus hons pris ne dira sa raison Adroitement, se dolantement non Mes par confort puet il fere de chançon Moult ai amis, mes povre sont li don Honte en auront, se por ma reançon Sui ces deus yvers pris Ce sevent bien mi honmes et mi barons Englois, Normant, Poitevin et Gascon Que je n'avoie si povre compaignon Qui je laissasse por avoir en prixon Je ne di pas por nule retraçon Mes encor sui je pris Ja nus hons pris ne dira sa raison Adroitement, se dolantement non Mes par confort puet il fere de chançon Moult ai amis, mes povre sont li don
I wonder if it is possible to grasp the impact of your interpretations once you cast them in these virtual realms, thousands of people inspired by it, thank you again, this one is really sublime.
Good Morning Daniel, Wow, that is a surprise, A Bouzouki! Yet another weapon is pulled from your extensive arsenal of Stringed instruments. If Only dear old Richard had as large an arsenal then he would not have ended up in the chokey and had to have his beleaguered nation pay a huge ransom. Still it gave us this fascinating piece which is a really doleful lament and quite at odds to the wonderful spring like day outside my current cell (the spare bedroom which is used as our office). How do you find these pieces? Do you have an extensive music library or some vast collection of recordings from which you transcribe from? however you do it just keep them coming. We are just steeling ourselves here from the the impending onslaught of Vera and Chuck! We child mind for them most Fridays to give Mum and Dad a break. Then in the evening Mum and Dad will come along with Dave and we have a 3 generation family supper together before collapsing exhausted into bed! Keep safe and Keep Playing Clive
Thanks Clive! This one was a request from a listener. I didn't recognize the tune until I did the TH-cam search and then realized I'd heard that melody before. The majority of requests I discard after listening to the song for a minute or so but once in a while a gem is uncovered. Have fun with the child-minding and remember to alternate knees every so often.
Hey could you give out lessons on 8 course lute music? Like step by step on different songs and make it a series? Would be really useful. I have a 8 course lute myself
That was lovely, thank you. What sort of instrument would it have been played on when it was written? Are there words to it? (Edit: just found some more versions on TH-cam 👍🏻) I can imagine it being sung by one of the girls with a haunting voice that was around in the 1960s
The title reminds me of the slightly old-fashioned French phrase 'Je vous en pris', which can mean "I beg/pray you not to think/speak/talk of it/my pleasure", as an answer after thanking someone or
and a person was often a prisoner 'at someone's pleasure'. Perhaps he was using a play on words to illustrate his confinement, and especially its length of time, when it probably seemed no one could/would talk about it or find a solution. Thank you, Daniel for this beautiful arrangement.
according to wikipedia (the ultimate authority) the dates of Richard I are (1157-1199) most likely the melody is the main feature that survives (after all, he probably didn't have instruments to play in prison)
You played this with a lot of passion. I keep returning to this video to enjoy the song. Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it
Seeing & hearing you play these magical instruments at once, I could almost feel King Richard's mournful imprisonment.
Thanks Ellen - I appreciate your comment
nice combination, sounds great

Here's the lyrics if you didn't know
Ja nus hons pris ne dira sa raison
Adroitement, se dolantement non
Mes par confort puet il fere de chançon
Moult ai amis, mes povre sont li don
Honte en auront, se por ma reançon
Sui ces deus yvers pris
Ce sevent bien mi honmes et mi barons
Englois, Normant, Poitevin et Gascon
Que je n'avoie si povre compaignon
Qui je laissasse por avoir en prixon
Je ne di pas por nule retraçon
Mes encor sui je pris
Ja nus hons pris ne dira sa raison
Adroitement, se dolantement non
Mes par confort puet il fere de chançon
Moult ai amis, mes povre sont li don
thanks - do you know how the title translates? I've found a few different interpretations
@@danbluedeer I don't really know
Great job you two
Thanks for listening (they said in unison)

Beautiful. How cool that we can get to hear a song composed by someone we just read about. Was composed for these two instruments originally?
Thanks! instrumentation was interchangeable..I'm thinking harp ...or just solo voice
Hey could you give out lessons on 8 course lute music? Like step by step on different songs and make it a series? Would be really useful. I have a 8 course lute myself
Thanks for the thought, but it sounds quite time consuming - I'm too busy playing music
That was lovely, thank you. What sort of instrument would it have been played on when it was written? Are there words to it? (Edit: just found some more versions on TH-cam 👍🏻) I can imagine it being sung by one of the girls with a haunting voice that was around in the 1960s
Thanks! I'm not sure of the instrumentation - harp seems like a good choice.

Thanks for listening !
Is there any instrument you cant play, love the videos!
Walid - Thanks for listening!
I don't suppose there's a tab forvthe bouzouki part?
sorry - I transcribed it into notation
@@danbluedeer
I'll take the dots if you have them!
Do you also play Irish folk music?
if you look in the playlists there's an Irish music category- should be about a dozen tunes there
Is this actually medieval? It sounds surprisingly modern.
according to wikipedia (the ultimate authority) the dates of Richard I are (1157-1199)
most likely the melody is the main feature that survives (after all, he probably didn't have instruments to play in prison)
@@danbluedeer It sounds like an interesting investigation to say the least. Where'd you get the music from, if I may ask?
@@Neophage I transcribed it from the video by Owain Phyfe - the lute substitutes for a harp
@@danbluedeer Ah, I see. Thank you very much! Great playing, by the way. You're very talented on a range of instruments.
I belive the tune was written in 1194 by King Richard while in prison in France.
Fantastic.
Thank you! Cheers!
