God bless her. My dad died a month ago. I don't think I could bear to hear this at a service for him. There wouldn't be a dry eye in amongst the mourners.
@@timavery2403 That's kind of you! Sorry for the loss of your Dad! No matter how many times I listen to this incredible piece of music it always brings a tear to my eye.
Haunting spiritual music from the Celtic ancestral soul that speaks across time directly to our soul and spirit. Our soul cry tears and our spirit spreads wings to soar to new divine heights of enlightenment and understanding all at the same time. The language of the soul which breaches the great mystery to speak the unspeakable and understand the incomprehensible that which words can not express. From the Celts this is truly a great gift of spiritual story telling to us all. Blissful.
It's called the Uillean pipes. It makes a warmer sound than the scottish pipes. It is very sweet and poignant to hear this instrument performed live. It has the blues in it, but it can also kick on fast Irish music.
This haunting piece of music is like listening to a time trial of Irelands historical past dating back to the 15th century and beyond, traditional and iconic "air" that punctures into the heart and soul of Irish celtic music, and will live long in the memory.
Uillean pipes are the national bagpipes of Ireland. I love them. From wikipedia: Earlier known in English as "union pipes", their current name is a partial translation of the Irish-language term píobaí uilleann (literally, "pipes of the elbow"), from their method of inflation." As you can see, the pipes are not as long as Scottish bagpipes, which is, I think, one reason their sound is softer and less harsh than Scottish pipes.
The "Bagpipes", inflated by the mouth, were used in Ireland as well as Scotland and North England. In Ireland thay were know as "Píobaí Choghaidh" in Irish i.e. 'War Pipes' and were played by the piper ahead of soldiers going into battle.
This is my fave selection from the whole show, and an all time fave amongst celtic music selections. The sound of the sun still rising , even with the bittersweet tones of life still playing. That's how it makes me feel. You feel it all the way to the soul.
ln heartfelt memory to all those who innocently and sadly died during the "troubles" in N. lreland - let this gloriously traditional lrish piece of Celtic music be an accompanying backdrop to "the fallen", whoever they may be, soul-searchingly reaching out for everlasting peace on both sides of the religious divide, forever moving forward together and not ever daring to look back, in times and immorial. RIP
im Irish living in Ireland, as u do, why does everyone think you need to be Irish to like this music?... music is universal its soul touching... if you have one
I just thought of this song again as I was falling asleep tonight after almost twenty years of not hearing it. I wore out the cassette I had it on, and have been unsuccessful finding it on iTunes. It's one of the most beautiful aural landscapes I have ever heard. Thank you so much Mr. Farted for posting it here!!! ;)
My understanding is the the Great Highland Bagpipes are the battle pipes, intended to be played in the open with no accompaniment and to strike fear in the enemy. Ullean pipes are the melody pipes, they can be softer and played with other instruments in the halls of the High Kings
+Sidney Frederickson The Uilleann bagpipe is descended from the great French baroque chamber-music bagpipes of the 17th Century played in the court of Louis IVX . These were refined from peasant instruments by the Hotteterre family of woodwind makers who also invented our modern clarinets and oboes. The English Northunbrian bagpipe is also a surviving member of this class of instrument. The Irish version, which the most complicated bagpipe in the world ,with as many as 10 reeds in some versions, was not fully developed until the end of the 19th Century. As for the Scottish Highland bagpipe, which is now made in only one intonation; it has completely different type of instrument with an unrelated history, It is most similar to the modern Spanish bagpipe, the Gaita, which is very popular in the northern provinces of Galicia and Asturias, and which is produced in several intonations, and also to the Biniou bagpipe, played only in the French peninsula of Brittany, but still very successful there, and is produced in only one tuning, about and octave higher pitched than the others. These are pastoral or peasant bagpipes which have been in essentially their present form since the 16th Century, and mainly due to the great similarity of their chanters, can be assumed to represent a single historic class of instrument.
Oh my god if you have heard this song and not been moved to TEARS, I tell you, TEARS, you have no goddamn soul. This is the most beautiful thing I have heard and it the freaking most beautiful thing that will ever EXIST.
Only a people who have suffered oppression for 800 years can create an instrument with a sound so unexplainable that it converses with your soul like the Uileann pipes 🇮🇪...
Known by name as Caoineadh cu Chulainn...incredibly emotive piece on the Uillean (elbow) Pipes...has also been played by Davy Spillane, one of the other maestro's of these type of pipes...
This hauntingly beautiful piece of music is called Caoineadh Cu Chulainn (the Cry of Cu Chulainn). If you love this , as I do, I would recommend looking at Davy Spillane's version (my favorite). I think its on his album - 'Out of The Air' where you will find even more stunning music from Davy. I absolutely am his no 1 fan!
For you, my love the pipe's say it all...love you for all the days in my life....beautiful sound of love....my heart my soul belongs to you always...my beautiful .....x
It's Uilleann pipes. The lament is called Caoineadh Cú Chulainn. It was played in the original show by the wonderful Davy Spillane (oh so long ago now.) The young man playing it in this version has captured every essence of the original, though. Beautiful, haunting rendition.
It's Irish Bagpipes, different from Scottish ones as it doesn't have a mouth piece it is purely powered by the pumping of the bag. It therefore makes a much more subtle and haunting sound. Absolutely beautiful. x
Davy plays a much more emotional and heartfelt version.....but this one is really beautiful. I dont know how you could play a bad version of this, if you are irish. I cry every time i listen to Davy......and now this version makes me emotional.
This is one of the saddest legends of Ireland and the music reflects the heartbreak and the grief. I can't tell it properly - look it up on the internet, it's inimitable.
I am from Glasgow, Scotland ... and i love the Uilleann pipes (means elbow in Gaelic) while i am not Irish, the Scots and the Irish have some very firm ties, and are probably the closest of all the Celtic nations, been to Ireland so many times, i love it, the culture calls to me, and as a speaker of the tongue ... well, if your Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Cornish, or whatever ... be proud to be a celt .... Alba (Erin!) gu bragh !!
This is how I know I'm Irish. 4th, maybe 5th generation American, maybe even more, haven't counted that far back... and yet I hear this and something deep inside me is HOME.
Uilleann pipes. The Uilleann pipes consist of a set of pipes that are played using a small set of bellows that are strapped to the player’s waist. Unlike other types of bagpipes, the Uilleann pipes do not have a drone, which is a continuous note that is played alongside the melody. Instead, the pipes produce a variety of different notes by pressing the keys on the chanter, which is the main playing component of the instrument.🎶
To answer your Question , 'Uilleann Pipes' . It' a quite old { developed it is believed around mid 1700's } An Irish Instrument named from the Irish-language term, 'píobaí uilleann,' their method of inflation.. Hear also Davy Spillane's original, version at the start of 1994 Eurovision song contest. They have developed it over the years, & Credit to this player Wonderful feeling & expression, if it brought tears to your eyes, you might have a little Gaellic blood in your veins. After the Irish 'Potato Famine' they Irish departed all over the world, USA Australiia & more.
This is for Mickey Gallaher. Although I agree with you about Americans calling themselves Irish,Scottish, Cornish, or any other member of another nation, America is made up of so very many cultures. I am an American of Irish and Scottish heritage, and very proud of it. I have been a lover of my heritage since I was a little boy. I hope to one day be able to reside in Ireland. Although I am American, my pride in my heritage and my families heritage is strong. This is not a negative statement nor do I hope it is taken that way. You are proud of your heritage and your country, as you should be, but remember that America is the people, that was forged of many nations when their own countries were persecuting them, and to get a chance at a new life. The generational gap from their heritage doesn't mean they are any less proud of it. Síocháin leat!
The title of this song is ' Caoineadh Cu Chulainn' a lament on the uilleann pipes for Cuchulain, the great Irish hero and leader who fought the sea prior to his death.Cúchulainn /(Irish “Hound of Culann”; also spelled Cú Chulainn, Cú Chulaind, Cúchulain, or Cuchullain) is an Irish mythological hero who appears in the stories of the Ulster Cycle, as well as in Scottish and Manx folklore.
To answer the question from the description, the instrument played here is called the Uilleann Pipes. It is an Irish version of bagpipes. Instead of a blowpipe to provide air for the bag, the player pumps a bellows with the right arm and then squeezes the bag with his left. It has a chanter like the highland pipes, but the range is two octaves, chromatic, whereas the highland pipes have a range of a ninth and use a modal scale.
Remember hearing this the first time at Eurovision played by Davy Spillane. Most beautiful in World Music. Who is the Creator/Composer of this? What a genious and talent to create such a melody that can make you cry instantly.
I personally prefer Davy Spillane's version of this, but it's hard to get this song wrong. The name is Caoineadh Cu Chulainn (Cu Chulainn's Lament) and it's probably one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've had the pleasure of hearing
Uillean Pipes, also played by Davy Spillane in Riverdance appearances.- Kate Bush also used Davy in her band for her rendition of Rocket Man in 1991. Unlike this performance here, Davy seems to pump the bellows with his left elbow...These pipes are widely used from Folk, to Rock & Orchestral music, & quite bewitching. Kate Bush played & directed Rocket Man for an album called Two Rooms, which included many other artists. Kate had wanted to do the song for a long time.... Both she & Sinead O'Connor received critical praise for their contributions on Two Rooms. Kate's version of Rocket Man (with Davy is on CZcams (B&W)...Official Video. Davy's performance of this tune is also up on CZcams.
this is my uncle Brian O'Brien and i'm proud to say that.
Very talented! Such a beautiful song
Amazing, what a name too.
It's Davy Spillane, no?
Your uncle, double Brian, is telling you lies.
Coattails?
the Irish pipes no matter what they play always makes me weep with love for the Irish people……………
So true. Especially now, at a dark hour..... 😢
We had this played at my mom's funeral. Beautiful, miss you mom!
God bless her. My dad died a month ago. I don't think I could bear to hear this at a service for him. There wouldn't be a dry eye in amongst the mourners.
@seamus heaney That's kind of you! God rest your Mam!

Sorry for your loss, I miss me mam everyday too
God bless your mother
There just no words to properly describe this absolute perfect piece of music....❤
Indeed it is Niall... Peace be with you brother...
This instrument is an extension of the person who is playing it. Their soul is exposed and the beauty within it's melody.
This portion of the show is the essence of what music can do to the human spirit. What a blessing.
I highly agree. Some of the notes stir something deep in my soul that I have no words to describe. Epic
That's very true

I have never seen or hear something more beautiful in my whole life.
Listen to Davy Spillane's version of this. THEN you won't hear anything more beautiful.
Uillean pipes! My fav! Was a pleasure to work with this man... twice. Still my favorite part of the Riverdance Tour.
Kenny Kuykendall You worked with him?
They make me cry! I love them! But can't listen too often
Davy Spillane, magic on the pipes. I can hardly think of an instrumental piece that’s more moving.
Uilleann*

If this doesn't make hairs on neck and arms stand up. Nothing in the world can. Mesmerising
Irish or not,this the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. It connects to you inner soul and sets it free. I want more !
☘❤🤟🤟.
Well it is Irish,this melody couldn’t come from anywhere else.
🇮🇪🇮🇪
I WAS THERE THAT NIGHT....IT WAS A GREAT SHOW FROM START TO FINISH.The Maltee Girl was with me and she loved it also....
It hits me every time i hear it! It is beautiful!
The most exquisite piece of playing ever, Brian makes the pies talk. That is what mastering your art is.
Can't beat talking pies.

It's a land problem not a religious problem. It's Royalists v Republicans not religion.
This song is so beautiful that it leaves me emotional and speechless every single time I hear it.
When here Irish music played with such feeling.. tears me up very proud of my Irish roots 🤟☘☘☘❤🇮🇪🇮🇪☘
Davy Spillane was the only person who could play this tune Oh my God he would bring a tear to a stone
Davy does this nice,this version is unbelievable
This is beautiful but it doesn't come anywhere near Davy Spillane's version.
It always makes me cry...something we are longing for....
Me too. It stirs a long lost memory and makes me long for "home".
I love this!! It's so beautiful but it always makes me cry!!!
One of the most Haunting & Beautiful pieces of music around.Just fantastic..Having Celtic background it has a very special meaning to me.
So beautiful... Can't help but be moved by the sound.
The most beautiful music brings joy to your soul and a tear to your eye.Loved it in Riverdance 👌👌👌👌👌
listening to this song makes a wild imagination in my heart and head and it is sad but also good as this music can truly open up the soul of someone
I'm Italian and I love all music. This Celtic song is so beautiful and sad.
these pipes are so chilling and spine tingling. but what a magnificant sound
my god gives the chills.
CHILLS. I keep coming back to this song, over and over.
It's called Caoineadh Cu Chulainn (Cu Chulainn's Lament)
I listen to this every morning. It grounds me in this cold and harsh world.
Uillean Pipes are amazing and so haunting... Irish instrument of pure joy and sorrow mixed.
Beautiful, moving and filled with emotion.
Just goose bumps everywhere. So beautiful...
Goosebumps everywhere... just beautiful!
This is just absolutely fantastic and beautiful and timeless,it really hits the heart and soul.
This is so beautiful.. It breaks my heart.. It breaks my soul.. 😢

It's what we were taught in school. 'Bhi me ag caoineadh' - 'I was crying' I would understand it would also mean 'lament'.
I think 'lament' is more accurate. Cud be rong, dough.
Caoineadh can you also mean mourning. My best guess is it's called Mourning Cu Chulainn.
For you, my love the pipe's say it all...love you for all the days in my life....beautiful sound of love....my heart my soul belongs to you always...my beautiful .....x
The pipes tug at my heart and soul .

Get goose pimples and the neck hairs stand up. Awesome melody and instrument with artist playing.

Could listen to that all day
reminds me of my grandad introducing me before he passed many years ago

As I can attest, one of the most difficult instruments to learn to play.
@@juliadcock3071 this is also my understanding.
Saw this live a few years back. Not a single dry eye in the audience.
Beautiful. Glorious. Uplifting
People think these are bagpipes, They're actually Uilleann Pipes. By what I've been told, the word Uilleann means "elbow" in the Irish language.
My favorite instrument from Ireland. Very haunting sound. I also love the bagpipes
Fantastic. Davy spilllane in the original Riverdance was amazing to see and hear.
Remember hearing this the first time at Eurovision played by Davy Spillane. Most beautiful in World Music. Who is the Creator/Composer of this? What a genious and talent to create such a melody that can make you cry instantly.
Beautifully expressed. I feel exactly the same way.

I'm sure this music sturs my centuries back irish roots.
