Bonus Episode 2

Jeremy Kingsbury — Sun, 25 Jul 2021 16:00:00 -0400

This is basically a mini album. I've been listening to old episodes and wanted all the tunes in Jackson's Celebrated Irish Tunes in one place.

What do you think of the new fonts and background? The font is as close as I could find for Robert Bremner's font in his printed collection. But I'm not sure the History nerd-ness of Marble paper and eighteenth century font outweighs the readability of a Sans Serif font and white space.

If you want to see any of these tunes they are all on NPU's website, or Cape Irish:

S4 E12 MacKay, MacDonald, O'Farrell tunes with Special guest Carrie Dlutowski

Jeremy Kingsbury — Sun, 21 Jun 2020 01:00:00 -0400

Since I’m in a new House…seems like the time to play the tune I “Composed” for my friend’s Ric and Berit when they finalized some messy business with their Cabin: Squatter’s Hame

Since we did the first tune in MacKay’s book here’s the first in O’Farrell’s Pocket Companion, Humours of the Glen. Read it here: https://digital.nls.uk/87779642

And Another MacKay tune I quite liked, “The Bride has a Bonny Thing” You can see it here:
https://digital.nls.uk/105006948

I went back to my house at the last minute to record Squatter’s Haim and just took a quick crack at this lovely Donald MacDonald tune Mary Gray.
https://digital.nls.uk/105682550

Speaking of History, finally gonna play the clip Carrie shared with me!

Carrie’s set: “The tunes are: The Lass o’ Corrie Mill (strathspey, traditional)/Carnival March (strathspey by Gideon Stove)/Return to Milltown (reel, traditional)/The Cape Breton Fiddlers’ Welcome to the Shetland Islands (reel by Willie Hunter). Emma and I are playing fiddle, and my mom Susan is on piano.” Thanks again Carrie! I miss making music with you so much!
You can listen to the album on various streaming services and buy it straight from her website: http://www.carriedlutkowski.com/

And another tune I’ve been enjoying out of O’Farrell: Jack in the Garret
