- Your ratings and comments are welcome! Video from John McDermott's live DVD "A Time to Remember" (2002). In addition to John's support of veteran's charities, he also promotes young talent. This video features a quick introduction of the Cottars, a step dance routine by Chanda Gibson and Pulse, and a traditional Highland dance demonstration by the Scottish Dance Company of Canada. The closing number is John singing his own unique version of Scotland the Brave while the two dance groups perform an extremely well choreographed routine.
"JOHN CHARLES McDERMOTT is a Canadian tenor best known for his rendition of "Danny Boy." Born the ninth of twelve children to Irish parents in Glasgow Scotland in 1955, John and his family moved to Canada in 1965. Growing up in a musical family, his only formal musical training was at St. Michael's Choir School in Toronto, Ontario in 1971 and 1972." - บันเทิง

This is an amazing performance and John's singing is amazing, not just Scotland the Brave, but his other performances.
Brilliant!Keep it up!
Thank you, macrosent, for this excellent video! I had never heard of John McDermott until I came across this video searching for "Scotland the Brave." I for one and glad I stumbled upon it! Since then, I have watched several of his video. I love his rendition of "The Battle Hymn Of The Republic" as well!
Once again, thank YOU, mate!
Abso damn lutely FANTASTIC
Love this-thanks.
Chanda Gibson is now Chanda Leahy. She's a mother of 6 and she teaches Stepdancing at Chanda's School Of Dance.
i Remember the concert in Nova Scotia. but where was broadcast live from, idk the venue
Wonderful. Thanks for posting. Love it.
Ahh to be young, talented, and good looking! Quite probably some of them are or were in love!
I am most pleased you liked it.
Beautiful
Although I am not a dancer by any stretch, I am told that Irish-based folk dancers (Riverdance, step-dance, etc) do keep their arms at their sides, whilst Scottish folk dancers typically raise one or both arms during all or part of their routine. New World dance troupes can stick to one style or the other, or incorporate both. You will notice the members of the Scottish dance troupe in this video DO raise their arms. Thank you for your comment.
The second dance is Scottish Highland Dance.
John Mc Dermott is the best in the world
You are most welcome.
If you read my description of the video in the right column, you would've seen that I made reference to each act in this set. I also inserted comment blocks into each part of the video, showing which group was performing at the time, per the liner notes of the DVD. Chanda Gibson and Pulse DO dance Ottawa Valley style. They are FOLLOWED by the Scottish Dance Company of Canada, who I must presume dance in Scottish style.
Does anyone know the name of the first song played by the male fiddler with Chanda dancing?
Anyone know what the first song Highland song, the one right before the singing, is called? (if it has a name, etc)
Vi vi
Hey, no worries. While I enjoy most of their art or craft, methinks most performers (including the one I married) are too high-strung and take themselves waaay too seriously. They work themselves into a tizzy over the most trivial of matters. I think they should just lighten-up and have fun doing what they do...entertain.
I agree with you, macrosent. I noticed in this video, the girl who can be seen throughout it but it on the right at 1:04 into the video, seems like she's just having a blast doing the dancing. It looks to me like she, as you described, is having a lot of fun doing what she does! All of the young people in this video are excellent, but she seems to have thrown her heart into the dancing.
Looks more like Irish Step Dance. Clogging.
Eh
