I still get goosebumps! We played this song for a competition, and as a flute first chair I lead my section with my second chair, who is my best friend. I still listen to this song. BTW trumpets!!! The BWA BWA eighth notes can ALWAYS BE LOUDER! Also for anyone who doesn't know that story behind this song. Danny is going to war, and his parents write him a letter saying like "Whatever happens we're here for you, we love you, we know you'll do your best and serve Ireland well." Anyways the speedy part if going into war, and the flute section is Danny remembering his parents in family. The lowbrass part with trumpet is the war going into full swing. The BWA BWA eighth notes by trumpet are the enemy team getting the advantage. The very end is Danny lying in the medical tent, seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. This story and song always gives me hope for the future.
We played this for honors band- over 100 kids. It was the best band some I have ever heard. The way we crescendoed and our balance made it sound even better then this video recording.
I agree 100%. I also play alto. love it when the trumpets come in, it makes my body feel as if it is filled with a bursting energy that is unstoppable. I also like it when the altos lead the trumpets.
I’m a trombonist and I’m going to play this at an event called music alive the day after this comment. And it was slower than this. The extremely fast for my band
Same! I get to play this song and a couple others for my school and a couple other schools all region band, this song is my favorite out of all of them
My band and I are playing this song almost every day! I HAVE to convince hime to let us play it during our concert! I also love our clarinet soli in the beginning, it really shows all the other instruments how important we are
This was my favorite song in my freshman year. Sadly we didn't have a lot of people I mean 11 players aren't a lot not to mention 5 where percussion 2 clarinets including me and 1 trumpet 1 baritone and finally 1 saxophone. But we pulled it off for our contest, festival and concert along with the graduation of 2017. Good job to the guy who wrote this song I love it so much. Yes I have a soft spot for band and country music. BITE ME! Bite me was to those that know me at school.
played this in 7th grade, then didnt hear it again for years. just heard the band warming up to it in the other room, and recognized it when they hit the second part. the nostalgia hit lined up with the climax and it gave me chills.
My band played this last year and I recently looked back at my sheet music, this song gives me a bittersweet feeling because it was the last song we played with our (now retired) conductor (i did indeed tear up midsong) but it also a ancient artifact of how far I've come since then and how bad I am at the trombone- I thought a G was high..... like the G in the top space... from this song I've climbed my way to the 1st trombone part in Fire Dance by David Shaffer
did this song for 7th grade. Clarinets were hyped af about it and we played great. During practicing, we told brass they had to be more confident after hearing the first recording of us playing separately.
We were supposed to play this, but we decided to play no. 1 since we are playing "Irish Tune From County Derry" arranged by Paul Cook (which is the first song in this arrangement).
Whoever dislikes this song will have to tell that to my face, the British, Irish, French, Canadian’s faces because WE made this. Yeah, Celtic is a culture/nation. Look it up.
Now this is the best band song I have ever played for 7th grade
+Rajeera Geleta I am playing this in 5th grade
I'm playing this in sixth, along with Star Wars/raiders March. But in fifth I played game of thrones
+Connor Mccoll on lol hi Connor. XD it's Brooke

Wow its like this song was made for 7th grade. Everyone’s saying they played it in 7th. As well as me. I have the solo version. For euphonium.
@@iamdislikebutton1670 same bro
bruh same as an alto sax tho
I played it back when I was in fifth 😅
The clarinets and trumpets I think are what bring this all together.
Agreed- I play trumpet.
As a flute player, I say the Saxophones bring it together
@@primrose_noteverdeen5155i agree as a saxophone player
ofc we do 🤭
I play alto sax and if you listen to part 1 we have the main melody for the I would say middle part it’s really fun though
i play trumpet but the flutes make it sound nice
le gloobus cat I agree!! 😄 flutist here!!!
le gloobus cat true cause im a flute player

For someone who plays the trombone and is currently practicing this peirce for a concert, it is a masterpiece
I play trombone too it is the best song.
The Trombone/Trumpet part at 61-65 is amazing especially with the drums :D Gives it a grand feel
There is clarinet in the mix too:)
Agreed, as a trumpet player it is my favorite part of the song
I'm a flute and I'm playing this for my 6th grade band and we actually sound really good
I still get goosebumps! We played this song for a competition, and as a flute first chair I lead my section with my second chair, who is my best friend. I still listen to this song. BTW trumpets!!!

We’re working on this, I’m in seventh grade, we did Celtic air and dance 1 last year. I’m a percussionist.
I like how there’s just a series on Celtic air dance it’s fun hear then in order!
2:20 my favorite part👍
(I play the trumpet)
Roller coaster 3.333 that part is awesome! I technically play euphonium, but trumpet is my second instrument.
Mine too lol
Roller coaster 3.333 GØ TRUMPETS! (I play clarinet X3)
I play flute this is also my favorite part
I’m percussion, but I agree.
My band and I are playing this song almost every day! I HAVE to convince hime to let us play it during our concert! I also love our clarinet soli in the beginning, it really shows all the other instruments how important we are
Ikr!! I'm a clarinet player and it makes us feel special with our solo
Bari sax is cool too… 😂

i am late to this comment, but the song is still fire
I played the first one in 6th grade but now I’m in 7th grade and we play this one now and I love it more than the other one
This was my favorite song in my freshman year. Sadly we didn't have a lot of people I mean 11 players aren't a lot not to mention 5 where percussion 2 clarinets including me and 1 trumpet 1 baritone and finally 1 saxophone.

Bite me was to those that know me at school.
The Danny boy part is chilling when you know the context of it.
wait, whats the context and how do i not know
@@adkoiscool I need it too!!!!!!
Y'all sleeping on the French horn
as a french horn player i also agree
French horn is the best instrument in band class
YES
The French Horn is actually the instrument that holds the song up gives the music it’s fullness. Without it the band would sound empty.
Tenor sax is amaZing I play it
Same here
same!
Sameeeee
Same too in 2024
played this in 7th grade, then didnt hear it again for years. just heard the band warming up to it in the other room, and recognized it when they hit the second part. the nostalgia hit lined up with the climax and it gave me chills.
I'm a clarinet and I get to play this song

Best band peace ever
This is a real good piece for beginners but overall so7nds awesome
I actually skipped this one and went from CA&D#1 straight to CA&D#3. Damn, I missed out!
Does anyone appreciate the low brass only part or is it just me
Ps: I play trombone
For the very few bass clarinet players, you’re not alone
Bari sax
Bass flute + piccolo here!
Hell yeah. Bass clarinet, baby.
#lowwoodwinds
Bari sax
Bb clarinet here. We played this for our fourth grade concert and I just find it again.
French horn is the most underrated instrument
And Bass Clarinets (I'm trombone XD)
Yes it is my friend. I don't play it but ik its worth.
no
I agree (toatlly not a bass clairnet)
*cough* Baritone
My band director is very good friends with Michael Sweeney. Plus, I love this piece!!!
This is awesome! I remember playing it in middle school and now I’m like wow.... flutes anyone?
I’m the only oboe in my band and this sounded awesome
We are playing this and it sounds so good
My band played this last year and I recently looked back at my sheet music, this song gives me a bittersweet feeling because it was the last song we played with our (now retired) conductor (i did indeed tear up midsong) but it also a ancient artifact of how far I've come since then and how bad I am at the trombone- I thought a G was high..... like the G in the top space...
from this song I've climbed my way to the 1st trombone part in Fire Dance by David Shaffer
HAHA SAME 🥹🥹
(probably because we are in the same band)
I play the clarinet in this so I get the solo in the beginning
I just played this, great piece of music 👍👍👍
alto sax is awesome beast at it
RJ Playzertz alto sax represent I'm here for that lol
did this song for 7th grade. Clarinets were hyped af about it and we played great. During practicing, we told brass they had to be more confident after hearing the first recording of us playing separately.
For all the percussion 1 out there measure 10 is at 0:24 about
Yeye clarinet, I'm a new beginner in band hopefully I make it through •́ ‿ ,•̀

This is my favorite song we played at honor band. I really like the second snare drum part. # PercussionistForLife
I'm playing the flute part in this song for school :)
Best song I learned in 6th grade band.
I played this on bells in 6th, i loved this so much
as a tuba player, the part in star of the country down where its just the brass taking tempo and the ending are the best parts of the entire song
I had a band concert yesterday, and this was the last song we played
Love 1:55 if your a trombone player you will agree
I love the clarinet mystical part
i play percussion in this! i love doing the symbols :)
Is anyone else wondering why they uploaded the first Celtic Air And Dance about 7 months after the second???
I play tuba and I love playing this peace
The trombone part at the start sounds really sad but it's really fun to play.
Especially on the baritone saxophone my 2 fav piece in 7th grade band!
I play percussion and have to play this at the Michigan music conference
I play trombone, our solo is awsome!!!
Micheal Sweeney is a massive W

This was one the first songs i learned on trumpet and my class slammed
Where are all my trumpets at?!🎺
right now were playing this in band and as a tenor sax, its great but terrible about how big my range of notes for this song is
We were supposed to play this, but we decided to play no. 1 since we are playing "Irish Tune From County Derry" arranged by Paul Cook (which is the first song in this arrangement).
i played celtic air and dance no 1 in seventh grade and it was great but man i wish we played this
I like the part in 2:21 the trumpets so awesome!!!
I don't know how I got here.
*O H W A I T Y O U T U B E R E C O M E N D E D I T T O M E ! ! !*
I’m a sax and this was still my favorite
the second part (star of the county down) is from how to train your dragon
Reeeee what
I couldn’t find it
Whoever dislikes this song will have to tell that to my face, the British, Irish, French, Canadian’s faces because WE made this. Yeah, Celtic is a culture/nation. Look it up.
This is one of my fave songs I’ve played. It reminds me a bit of confu panda idk why-
I play this song in my band class I am a trumpet #awesome
