The Chieftains - Matt Molloy Medley video free download

if the people were really tuned into the "spirit" of the music they wouldn't have driven the tempo to stupidity with their clapping….great playing by Matt despite having the equivalent of a great dancer endure gunfire aimed at his feet

Wonderful playing. 3 tunes, there - the traditional slip-jig, "A Fig For A Kiss", followed by 2 reels, "The Moving Cloud", and "Carmel Mahoney Mulhaire's"."The Moving Cloud" is a composition of fiddle player Neilidh Boyle, and the last tune was composed by accordion player Martin Mulhaire, and named in honour of his wife, Carmel.

No doubt the clappers meant well, but it had to be annoying to the flautist.

Comment peut-on être aussi bon ?

No, It doesnt. But the people In the Audience think it does. People like to get into the spirit of the music, That was All I was Saying.

That sounds "in time" to you?

LorenzoFlute

The problem is that when you go from a slow tune to a faster one, you are looking to gradually increase the speed in the first few seconds, but people get excited and start clapping before you reach the final tempo, which is exactly what happens in this clip...

I believe they were Clapping in time to the music. Its kinda nice when the crowd gets into the spirit of the music though :)

LorenzoFlute

How hard is it to understand that you should clap only at the end??
