i second that... i gone from classical to irish trad and its so hard but gettin there its a lot of listenin and patients and gettin the notation correct!! there are books that can help but nothin is better than listening by ear and learnin it that way!!
I am a musician myslef playing the Ocarina, Double ocarina, piano, and Irish harp. I am half Irish on my mothers side and this is the most beautiful music there is. I didnt mean to offend anyone. I just wanted to stand up for any other fiddler who wasnt Irish who may have read your comment and began to doubt themselves...
incredible. and I agree the violin is the expression. its so hard to fiddle and smile at the same time much less make other expressions. Very Talented.
what a pretty talented little girl! she is so lovely to watch as she is obviously enjoying herself, to switch so rapidly into another tune is fantastic. i love this video.
This is Mairead a truly excellent musician. She has won numberous All Ireland medals and is from Cork. She is amazing and plays with the Douglas comhaltas branch we are very proud of her
I agree with slightlyinsane123 I've been playing classical music for 6 years with the occasional Irish jig, but we do nothing like this. I would love some sheet music if anyone could supply some! And you're an amazing violinist.
flipping heck, how does she keep so calm when she's playing so fast at the end?! i always get all jittery when i'm playing in front of people, and i've been playing for as many years as she's been alive! nice one girl, keep it up!
@Wafaloo her name is Mairead Hickey, she comes from Cork. i read that in some comments two years ago, because i was so fascinated of her and couldn´t stop watching the video and, more important, listen to the music. And DON´T anyone tell she is bored - she is just concentrated. Bored people making music sound different!
That little girl is a future master of that intrument. Thank you parents for your continued encouragement of her rare talent. btw Polish and Spanish must sound similar to at least one commentor.
WOW! I've been playing violin for 6 years and I've ALWAYS wanted to learn more about Irish fiddling! OMG "The Contradiction"! I love that song. You heard of Mairead Nesbitt? She played that and you sound like her. She is my favorite idol! You have a great future, and your so lucky for such an opportunity. I'm well along the way classically, but my real passion is this exact stuff. If you have sheet music, I would love it so much!!
its worth tryin all types of music out with your violin caus i use to only play classical and in the end was bored rigid with it!! So i got myself some russian music and irish trad and spanish and tryed them all out and concentrated on the classsical and the one i liked best!! You can do rock.. blues.. jazz all sorts!! Give it a go if you dont try you wil never know!!
i second that... i gone from classical to irish trad and its so hard but gettin there its a lot of listenin and patients and gettin the notation correct!! there are books that can help but nothin is better than listening by ear and learnin it that way!!
this is one of the first videos i ever watched in youtube back in 2008...and I still love it.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
And you have every reason to be proud. She's wonderful, and so at ease when she plays.
