I’m just so inspired by your generosity of spirit in making these videos. I’m a 3rd gen Irish American, and also a classical musician....with all of my concerts and music-making cancelled this year, your videos have been a total lifeline and I’m so enjoying this process of learning a new instrument and mysteriously sort of connecting to my ancestral roots in the process...It’s been deeply healing. Thank you so much for this incredible gift you’ve given all of us, it’s really meaningful and I so admire your level of mastery and your skill in teaching. Such a joy to participate...cheers! - Emma Lynn
Ive been surfing youtube for a while now about how to play, and although other artists are good to watch, I find your lessons are the best to learn from. You break down the patterns and skills into identifiable and practical concepts that one can approach with energy and interest, further enhanced by your natural energetic and positive teaching style. Appreciate all the effort.
I think it is essentially important that the traditions survive and THANK YOU from the deepest recesses of my soul for doing that! I am 3rd generation Irish Canadian, not raised with the bodhran but discovered it on my own. Which lead me down the garden path to true Irish music. And a tiny little piece of my past and lives of my great great grandparents. THANK YOU!for bringing THEIR life alive. They KNEW this music. It was an everyday thing for them. I can now close my eyes, picture my grandmother in Cloghers walking down the road with a basket on her arm, humming a tune , the beat of the bodhran setting her step, as she went to sell bread. THANK YOU
I've been through a lot of youtube bodhran tutorials, and yours are the best (I'm not kidding - the caliber of my playing progressed INSTANTLY because of the way you teach) I love your structure - it's so simple and to the point, and the music to practice with at two speeds is so nice. In my opinion, The MOST USEFUL parts are those phrases, like "Picadilly" and "galloping, galloping, coffee". I've been searching to see if there are any other "bodhran patterns/phrases" to say when you're playing, and I can't find any :( Do you have any other good phrases or combinations of phrases you could suggest? I'd be most grateful!
Hey Laura - so glad to read your message and I'm delighted the videos are a good help. Particularly glad to hear you find the vocalisation helpful, and using words to create rhythms. I'm working on a video on rhythm and vocalisation at the moment, so looking forward to sharing that soon! Stay well and keep drumming! Ruairi
I saw a video of Tommy Hayes playing without a tipper, just his hand. Can you do a video on this please? Is it difficult for a beginner? Thanks. Love your details. Great teaching .
Absolutely loving these tutorials Ruairi. Mind blowing to hear a Bodhran accompanying Bach! just shows how versatile an instrument it is. I am going to have to put in lots of practice to get the hang of that last pattern, the syncopated beat. I’d love to see / hear that one played along to a jig. Looking forward to the next tutorial.
These tutorials are excellent. What I missed in the jig lesson was applying the rhythms to music, as was done for the reels. For me, anyway, it helps internalize the patterns when I here how it all comes together. Thanks. Mickey
For reference: 1:29 what is a jig? 4:00 Bach jig example 4:58 foundations and pattern 1 6:15 pattern 1 with metronome 8:34 pattern 2 12:03 pattern 3 (hemiola) 14:32 pattern 3 with metronome 14:50 the pop sound 16:14 applying pop to pattern 1 18:30 pattern 4 (syncopation)
My family crest is Dalton from Queens county. I'm so appreciative of your videos as I've been a drummer my whole life but never had one from my mum's heritage! My bodhran is on its way this Thursday. Looking forward to all of your tutorials. Slainte!!
You are THE BEST! Why is it or how is it that the best is always coming from County Cork? Thank you very much for this series! Please keep them coming!
Thank you so much for the kinds words, and I'm so glad your enjoying the videos! I actually really enjoy making them too, so its win win :-D happy playing and keep practicing! Ruairi :)
Thanks so much Lois, and I'm really delighted that your finding them helpful. I'm just finishing up my hornpipe video so hope to be sharing that in the next few days :)
Go raibh maith agat. :-) Thank you so much for your lessons! I have played other percussion for many years and have just got my first bodhran. You are great at teaching the techniques in a way that is easy to follow. I love Irish and Scottish music and hope I'll get really good at playing this awesome drum. Greetings from Mette-Lise in Denmark.
Can you play some jig music for us and show us the jig patterns with the music. You done it in the Hornpipe video? This might be useful to see it and try to follow it. Thanks I love the way you explain things
Keep up the great work! It may be simple but a video on how to pick a bodhran and some tips for how to get started (and links of music to listen to or play along with) would be great. Also, what kind/model of tipper is that you're using or recommend?
Hi Larry! Great ideas, will certainly add both ideas to my list. I really like the idea of going through some different types of bodhran/ maker styles and price brackets and doing a comparison. I use a McNeela hot rod style tipper which Ive modified myself with wood glue and ankle support tape ( bought from a pharmacy!) .. it gives the back end of the tipper a bit more weight, which helps is getting more bass and fundamental in the sound.
HI. Really enjoying your tutorials. Could I ask that you play an example of the "hemiola" to music. I can follow you on both slow and fast examples but for the life of me I can't apply it music. It's driving me banannas.
Oh my goodness I love this! Silly question, how do you feel about non Irish people playing the Bodhran? Especially with all the cultural appropriation talk happening these days? Genuinely curious, thank you!
Wow, I'm getting a serious education here, and have some definite practice time coming up, thanks to your lessons. Up until now, I've just gained basic knowledge on reels and jigs; you're working at a whole different level, and that's just really impressive! Slainte!
Hi there! Great question :) Bodhran's don't need much. I use quite thick skinned drums, so a little water occasionally when its feeling dry. Try to keep it somewhere the temperature stays the same. Ideally away from radiators, cold drafts etc. I think thats it really..! Happy practicing and thanks for the kind words :)
Thanks Ruairi. Great stuff. Oh, and by the way Anette K (from one month ago), I've got you beat on age. I'll be 70 in March. However, I'll just bet that you and I are NOT the oldest kids learning from Ruairi though. :-)
Hey Ruairi! I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m a whistle player who just got my first bodhran. Quick question about the DUDDUD strokes… On the DD part, is this a conscious wrist movement for the 2nd D or is it a bounce after the first D when it’s played up to speed? 7:37
Going for an upstroke after the pop feel really counterintuitive. Feels like I'm in a perfect position for a downstroke instead. Gotta practice that. Any tips?
Hi there. You mentioned you were going to do a tutorial on playing like Tommy Hayes..without a tipper. Have you put that up yet and if so where would I find it? Thanks
The triangle pop is a nice sharp accent that feels more natural than trying to do a downstroke rim click. Is there a way to get a similar accent on the upstroke, or is that best serve with a bottom rim click?
Hi Ruairi, question for you… what’s the name of the sample jig you played at 3:22 in this vid? My father played it on accordion for years but I never knew it’s name. Cheers. 3:22
Hi Ruairi, Love the videos. However when I listen and watch videos of Bodhran players at sessions, I tend to follow my interpretation of the music rather than what I have tried to learn from your lessons. The players seem to play differently in the sessions, I of course might be wrong. Let's say I was sitting in a session Do I follow my own interpretation to the music or do I play your lessons? My fear is playing out of tune and putting the other players off their stride at a session. Do I just make it up as I go on the session, my interpretation.
Can I have some advice, I am new to the Bodhran, been following your videos. I have been playing along( trying) to your Spotify examples of reels, jigs, hornpipes. I feel that I am always playing the same strokes regardless of jig, reel. Hornpipes. What's the difference. They seem to blend into one another. Or should I just play a long by listening and hitting the drum as I interpret it myself? I'm a bit lost.. Lol
My bodhrán teacher, her teacher, and a good friend that first introduced me to the drum all told me to learn the basic patterns then figure it out to each tune or song. You'll eventually notice that there are similar or identical parts (Blarney Pilgrim and Kesh for example) and can mold things into other tunes. I've been learning to play to individual tunes then let it flow based on how the rest of the group is player.
I don't understand what right hand technique you're using with the pop sound. It almost looks like you're striking with the back end of the tipper. In order to get the sound from a downstroke I'm having to go from holding my tipper at 45 degrees to striking the drum right at 90 degrees. Is that right?
Why is my beating arm so painful after one minute? I can't seem to keep any beat going. Very tiring. I imagine it's mechanics. I can't get a good pressure on the drum head and keep to a small area. Always hitting the rim by accident. Any advice.
These lessons are great. I wish I couldn't hear that very rapid playing in the background. It's like impossible at this time and is distracting trying to listen to You.

You told us about getting a good Bodhrán from Brendan White. But where to get good tippers? :)
And where did you get this Bodhrán? Didn't see it on Brendan White`s side
Bach with a Bodhran is my new therapy! That is aaaaaawesome…..
Haha! So glad you like, gigue as they did in the 17th c !
This is awesome thanks for the help im learning bodrahn for Busch gardens a theme park near me and they have an Ireland section!
Thanks for checking out my video on JIGS!
If you have any requests or suggestions for other videos let me know in the comments below :)
Would be nice to have a video on tuning the bodhran.
I would love to see a video on cheap alternatives to practice with (the cheapest real bodhrán drum on amazon I could find was $92)

You've inspired me to pick up my bodhran again after a few years of just looking at it, you're class! Thanks :)
Wonderful! Delighted to read this!
Just started following your tutorials. Find them extremely easy to follow, especially verbalizing the rhythms. I find I am improving daily thank you
I saw a video of Tommy Hayes playing without a tipper, just his hand. Can you do a video on this please? Is it difficult for a beginner? Thanks. Love your details. Great teaching .
Hey Kevin - sure thing, I’ll add it to the list! Glad the tutorials are helpful.

Thanks so much! Very glad to hear they are a help and do keep an eye as more are on the way :)
Awesome video, and super helpful! Can you PLEASE post a video of you playing along with a full violin partita gigue? That was so fun!
Excellent thanks! Enjoying the lessons!
Glad you like them Delbert!
Wow! Bodhran has come a long way since I was a wee lad. You show the difference between a bodhran player and a dude with a bodhran.
haha! Thanks! Ruairi
thanks a lot for these tutorials!

Love this I'm just starting to learn in lockdown.. Very helpful
A fantastic think to be doing during the lockdown - keep on going! Thanks for the kind words. Ruairi
Mesmerising & magical To Watch
Thanks Sharon!
Can you do examples with music like you did for the reels? They were very helpful
For sure - doing that for my slip jig video which is on the way in the next few days. Thanks for the tip Kevin- happy drumming! Ruairi
Thanks for this Ruairi, extremely helpful🤗
Thanks Stephen!
Great instruction, and I dont even own one. Great stuff.
You are the best teacher ever
Thanks John!
THANK YOU! This is helping me tremendously! :-D
The part on Jean Sébastien Bach is very interesting and… inspiring 😊🤝
Thanks Hervé 🙏
Hi, would love to hear you play a little example of a tune that demonstrates these rhythms at the end of each lesson!
great video!!!!!
Great lesson. Thanks.
Can you play some jig music for us and show us the jig patterns with the music. You done it in the Hornpipe video? This might be useful to see it and try to follow it. Thanks I love the way you explain things
The irony of a gallop is it's a four-beat gait. The canter is a three-beat gait. So maybe "cantering cantering?"
Yesss! I always mention this in my classes... 4 beats + moment of suspension!
Keep up the great work! It may be simple but a video on how to pick a bodhran and some tips for how to get started (and links of music to listen to or play along with) would be great. Also, what kind/model of tipper is that you're using or recommend?

HI. Really enjoying your tutorials. Could I ask that you play an example of the "hemiola" to music. I can follow you on both slow and fast examples but for the life of me I can't apply it music. It's driving me banannas.
The jig tempo, is a step up (if you like) from a waltz 3/4
Its also Roger Taylor (Queen) favourite time signature to write in.
Excellent tutorials!!

@@bodhran Thank you for the info! I really appreciate it :)
Hey Ruairi! I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m a whistle player who just got my first bodhran.
Quick question about the DUDDUD strokes… On the DD part, is this a conscious wrist movement for the 2nd D or is it a bounce after the first D when it’s played up to speed?
7:37
Hi Noel! First D is more of a flat stroke, 2nd, a full down - thats how it works for me at least!
Going for an upstroke after the pop feel really counterintuitive. Feels like I'm in a perfect position for a downstroke instead. Gotta practice that. Any tips?
Hi there. You mentioned you were going to do a tutorial on playing like Tommy Hayes..without a tipper. Have you put that up yet and if so where would I find it? Thanks
The triangle pop is a nice sharp accent that feels more natural than trying to do a downstroke rim click. Is there a way to get a similar accent on the upstroke, or is that best serve with a bottom rim click?
Amazing!!
Glad you enjoyed!
Hi Ruairi, question for you… what’s the name of the sample jig you played at 3:22 in this vid? My father played it on accordion for years but I never knew it’s name. Cheers. 3:22

i just struggled with the hemiola… but I keep on practicing. ;)
Practice makes … more practice! Enjoy the journey, it will come 🙏
I am really having a hard time getting the Up stroke on 5 after the 34 DD in the last version (With both slap and Open sound) (The one around 18:30)
Hmm I think I might be mixing Galloping Galloping Coffee into the rhythm...
Can I have some advice, I am new to the Bodhran, been following your videos. I have been playing along( trying) to your Spotify examples of reels, jigs, hornpipes. I feel that I am always playing the same strokes regardless of jig, reel. Hornpipes. What's the difference. They seem to blend into one another. Or should I just play a long by listening and hitting the drum as I interpret it myself? I'm a bit lost.. Lol
My bodhrán teacher, her teacher, and a good friend that first introduced me to the drum all told me to learn the basic patterns then figure it out to each tune or song. You'll eventually notice that there are similar or identical parts (Blarney Pilgrim and Kesh for example) and can mold things into other tunes. I've been learning to play to individual tunes then let it flow based on how the rest of the group is player.
I don't understand what right hand technique you're using with the pop sound. It almost looks like you're striking with the back end of the tipper. In order to get the sound from a downstroke I'm having to go from holding my tipper at 45 degrees to striking the drum right at 90 degrees. Is that right?
(Do you teach live at all?)
I used to all the time! I have been teaching online over the last year, and hope to blend online and in person once it becomes safe to do so 🤗🌸
@@bodhran thank you 🙏 I hope I’ll be able to come and get some lessons once things change! 🌸🌸
So I'm super down with Connor McGregor teaching me how to play the Bodrhan 👌
LOL !!!!!!
I knew it was him 😶
Merci !!!!
Why is my beating arm so painful after one minute? I can't seem to keep any beat going. Very tiring. I imagine it's mechanics. I can't get a good pressure on the drum head and keep to a small area. Always hitting the rim by accident. Any advice.
Impossible to tell without seeing you play *but* its likely to be playing with tension/residual tension AND from the elbow as opposed to the wrist
How many inches is this bohdrain please, Ruairi? Thank you.
Thanks
Thats very kind of you! I hope you enjoy the videos 🙏
🙏🏼👍🏻👍🏻❤️
Where does one get a tipper like the one you're using here?
I make my own now!
Any chance you can do a video for that 😊
Ruiairi, lovely video!! Very clear! Are you doing skype classes? Best and a big hugge!
Hey Maca! Sure thing- give me an email and we can chat! Big hugs from London :-D
How do you move your hand if it starts off under the bar that runs across the back?
I take the bars out
These lessons are great. I wish I couldn't hear that very rapid playing in the background. It's like impossible at this time and is distracting trying to listen to You.
i basically taught myself how to play and they way I do the jig pattern is DUDUDU is that unheard of?
Indian vocal percussion: Takita takita. So the bodhrán is Irish Indian.
You should change the D for a P when a POP is played, In my opinion 🤔👍🏻
can one use a bodhran to play rock n' roll songs
Why not?! More than likely a reel pattern will fit best, but depends on the song! Have fun and don’t hold back the energy 💥🙌
