Top Class again from ITMA. My favourite so far. Frankie is well deservedly up there with the greats!
Ah fabulous..Thank you Frankie and Liam..super interview...such honesty and humility from an absolute master of the tradition.
Fascinating listening to his influences and what he got from them
This is really great. I do enjoy how long the warm up before he started playing was, as it was paid off by some pretty amazing playing. I loved his capacity for "imitating" the style of others. These are so wonderful keep 'em coming.
Well done Liam and the team, great interview
My god. The way he plays the bow to say “America” with that lift and percussive sound. Amazing. Amazing.
Excellent interview. I met Frankie here in Chevy Chase a few years ago and he was just as personable. His respect and genuine admiration for the music and the music makers was delightful. Liam I kept thinking of your Dad because he has the same love for the Trad genre and those who have carried it on. Frankie is certainly one of those people.
Great to hear of interfaces with different music..
The best video I've seen !
Saw him playing at Tig Coili.
the volume is very low so I put the subtitles on - unfortunately they are gibberish a lot of the time - Day Dining for De Dannan 😬
Hello Chris, sorry you were having problems with the sound. Unfortunately turning on sub-titles generates CZcams's own sub-titling service, which we cannot control - hence the Day Dining.
@@ITMAVideos obviously someone with zero knowledge of Irish trad - later on we got 'tummy peoples' in a list of famous fiddlers. Great programme anyway in spite of CZcams's efforts!😆

Can anyone tell me (Aporox)
How many players have passed through the hands of Frankie Gavin and De Danann since it started?
What is the intro tune?
