- From the acclaimed CD 'The Road West', here's The Máirtín O'Connor Band with the hauntingly beautiful 'Inagh Valley' and the jig 'Rockin' The Boat'. Absolutely brilliant musicianship from three of Ireland's foremost traditional musicians - Máirtín O'Connor on button accordion, Cathal Hayden on fiddle and Séamie O'Dowd on guitar.
As played during a concert at the Fleadh Nua in Ennis May 26th 2012, and streamed in full on LiveTrad.com. - Hudba
Just when you think that your mind and heart cannot be blown anymore..... beautiful Irish music and musicians, where will you take us next?
One can only be proud for our Irish heritage when the unique genius of Martin O Connor is displayed to the World
And the whole of Ireland is full of musicians.
This is the best box playing I have heard in some time and the accompaniment of guitar and fiddle is second to none. Excellent
First time I ever heard this accordion player and the band.
Brilliant.
You have no idea how much this is helping in these crazy times! Thank you!
Listening again and added to my favourites. Better each time I listen
What fantastic musicians.
Hard to find words fitting for such wonderful musicians ..perfection
Under so much stress right now - so grateful to have found this beautiful music. Thank you so much 💕🕊
I always love the way Mairtin plays this, so much mood and feeling, beautiful!
Heaven on the ears 👌
Absolutely awesome
I could listen all day! Absolutely beautiful and soothing to the soul.💗🍀
Now one of my favourite tunes of all time!
Top class. Irish music played at its very best :)
This music gets inside your soul
Superb..reminds me of uncle Jimmy Atkins...Slievrue and Waterford. Thanks...absolutely beautiful...x
Absolutely and utterly beautiful...can't hear enough of it...thank you...

Happy Christmas 2021 "God Bless Us...Everybody" a dit le petit Tim Peace All..& surtout The power of Love...heartofthe earth merci aurevoir
Omg what can I say gods own people the talent skill god given bless u
Mighty stuff Máirtin, up Mervue and Annaghdown. Yahooooooo!
Life changing vibes when u see this live
Máirtín O'Connor is probably the best Irish button box player ever. His album 'Perpetual Motion' hasn't a single Irish tune... And is amazing.
I mixed these guys a few months ago and, after soundcheck, they were just fooling around and played "The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba" from Handel's oratorio "Solomon." They can play pretty much anything.
@@keithmills778 I don't know all the Irish accordion players, but still IMO Máirtín O'Connor is well above most - if not all - of them.
Watching him playing with Phil Cunningham is astonishing :D
Ah, the jig that starts at 4:00 just bring me to my f**king knees, makes me feel like the music is the MOST important thing in the whole world.
Skippers Alley has a great version of this.
4 years later and the effect of this jig still hasn't diminished, still a cathartic experience. There are less than a handful of tunes out there that get to me this way. I really hope to get a chance to meet Máirtín O'Connor one day.
Well if I was privileged to see that tune live in an old chapel bring ur own drink it literally did bring me to my knees with emotional release truelly amazing
@@keenfit30 Wow! What a setting! What an incredible experience you've had.
Absolutely wonderful
I seen these guys in a church with my family it was prob one of the most emotionally effective perfornces in my life from music the room felt like it was relieving everyone from stress an replacing it with love other people I spoke to had this exact feeling . Incredible I think the tone in church had loads to do with it but the stories between tunes . Wow anyways I lifted a banjo after that an rest is history
absolutely beautiful,
of the heart
A masterful performance
Just great, I can't end listening to your cd I bought in Ballyshannon this summer.
How sublime!
Surgical, beautiful.
Perfection.
❤️❤️ soul comfort!❤️🙏
Maravilloso
this sounds so effin good
Love this tune !!!
Tremendously good. Thank you!
Superb playing✅🇮🇪
Simply beautiful
I had the pleasure of hearing them in Portland, Maine, a few years ago. Beautiful, magical music.
Beautiful calming effect
Beautiful - its very difficult to speed up a tune, in my book that's talent - fantastic ! :)
great.....I love this tunes
master at work
Magical.
c'est magnifique ! merci !!
That was beautiful-absolutely beautiful! A wonderful performance. I especially liked the accordion (melodeon?), as a hobbyist player myself, but the guitar and fiddle really brought some extra liveliness to it. I'll be sure to listen to more of Mr. O'Connor's playing. ~My Regards & Applause from Across the Pond here in Boston 🍀
Regarding the name, the instrument Máirtín is playing is named melodeon in the UK, and button accordion in Ireland, where the name melodeon is for the single row ones :)
Other less popular names are button box, cairdín or bosca ceoil.
Irish accordions are usually tuned to B/C, less popular tunings are C/C# or C#/D, what makes them theoretically chromatic, but there're always pitches more difficult to play than others.
@@ConsairtinFergus My button accordion has three reeds per note, while I understand a melodeon has two, a less piercing sound, depending on the tuning. I noticed Martin working a control that changed the sound and presume it shifted reed courses. I took it that he played an accordion.
Thanks for sharing! ♥
Wonderful!
Удивательной красоты и грусти мелодии. Маленькая страна с великой музыкальной культурой, такой простой и такой
понятной. Когда я слушаю ирландсую музыку, мне кажется что у меня были какието ирландские предки, так близки мне эти мелодии.
Excellent!!
Eu não tenho palavras para definir a emoção produzida pelo som desta band,mas sinto uma profunda integração com o universo.
Awesome!
Good for the soul, soak it in
great song
Martin, you're welcome in La Rochelle on March 2017 !
i like the name of the accordion "Salterelle"
Saltarelle - just FYI 😜
@@joefagan9335 merci Saltarelle "Sauter" Fr. for to jump maybe just SaltofThe Earth
Wow!!!
Verry good, diatonic ! Thanks !
Bravo¡¡
Magnificent
If you love this piece and haven't heard Mark O'Conner's Appalachian Waltz, then you are in for a wonderful treat.
I prefer Mark O'Connor's Ashokan Farewell to his Appalachian Waltz.
Does anyone know if there is music available for this? I'd like to learn it on my Melodian. Thanks.
king brilliant
great
❤️❤️❤️

Ég hef ekkert með þig að gera.
Those guys should not have a day job, they should only spend their time playing their amazing music for the people
Takk fyrir
Ní saol gan ceol ná grá!
wouahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Ceoltóir den chead scoth. Fíor mhaith.
What accordion does he use?
It sounds like it's tuned in B/C to me
Kevin Mulby it’s a salterelle accordian, it’s not B/C nor C#/D, I’m not sure what tuning it is
It sounds like he’s got a Bb chord in his bass which confuses me very much
Je ne me tanne jamais d'écouter cette pièce :)
We’re are yurself
And family from to begin with Hun? Amazing songs/ and instruments x
My family’s brosna co kerry and tuma/ athenry Galway x
Who wrote Inagh Valley?
Davy Spillane
Mairtin wrote it
34 people with no idea
Why wouldn't the guitarist use a microphone like everyone else? Not a high volume situation and saddle transducers ruin the sound of even a nice guitar. That said, nice job, lads.
Pas terrible.
What ???
Certainly not it’s fantastic
