Greetings from a son of Donegal (my father was from Ardara, died in 1988). Great music wish I was there.

Not a big fan of that, to be honest. I think that type of arrangement is a bit contrived, would rather hear a new musical statement. I like it when a strong air is reprised, a la SFU 2008. But the strathspey to reel feels awkward to me. Also, kinda feel the ending was under tempo. Great execution all the way around, but doesn't really suit me arrangement-wise.
